Taylor Swift surprisingly gets blamed for every Indianapolis Colts loss
By Lee Vowell
The Kansas City Chiefs and Indianapolis Colts are not scheduled to play each other this year. That doesn't matter, though, because what Taylor Swift does with the Chiefs seems to have an effect on what happens with the Colts. Make sense? No? Well, the statistics do not lie.
The only real connection between the Colts and Swift is seemingly that the singer dates an NFL player and the Colts are also an NFL team. Maybe Swift has friends on the Indianapolis team. Or maybe she has enemies and puts jinxes on them. Only it is more complicated than that.
See, what Swift does not only affects, through some kind of weird sorcery, if Indianapolis loses but also if they win. This is what two teachers in Indiana, Erin Bangel, a third-grade teacher at Clarks Creek Elementary in Plainfield, and Stefanie Husenjovic, who teaches kindergarten in Decatur Township, have discovered. They used a scientific method to gain the results as well. Sort of.
The power of Taylor Swift is so great it affects the Kansas City Chiefs and the Indianapolis Colts
According to a report from WTHR in Indianapolis (as well as an article by our FanSided friends at Horseshoe Heroes), the teachers help students learn math and predictability by posting the Colts schedule in their classrooms and then the students mark off if the team won or lost. This year, the teachers added a bit of fun to the mix by having a chart of if Taylor Swift went to watch Travis Kelce play for the Kansas City Chiefs. Then something strange was noticed.

Each time Swift watched Kelce in person, the Colts lost. Again, there was no direct relation between what the Chiefs were doing and what the Colts were doing, other than Swift, because the teams do not play each other in 2024. But when Kelce missed watching the Chiefs, the Colts won.
Either way, the power of Swift is likely something she cannot even comprehend. Her going to a Chiefs game has so much gravitational pull that it also affects another midwestern team, the Colts. This obviously seems far-fetched. The truth is, though, the charts and graphs of Bangel and Husenjovic don't lie.
