We learned this week on New Heights that Jason Kelce has a conspiracy theory that Gritty is actually a ripoff of himself, because a.) he was introduced after Jason made a big impression with his famous Super Bowl parade speech and b.) he has substantial eyebrows. (Travis doesn’t buy this theory because c.) literally everything else about Gritty’s appearance.)

Had this bombshell been revealed before Yuletide, I would have needed to do a fair bit of revision to incorporate it into my story, but since it wasn't, I shan't.

We also learned that, sadly, Travis has never taken Pat to a hockey game. This is the NHL’s fault for not maintaining a franchise in Kansas City, which would be the most convenient location for them to go on bro dates. Travis yearns to share his love of hockey!

Jason Kelce said on the New Heights podcast that he has not actually announced his retirement yet.

That is a big decision and it's probably a good idea to give it more consideration first, but somehow I think that whenever he makes the decision, it's going to be to retire. He looked really down during the game and again on the podcast, although he did take some time to make his favorite McDonald's employee's day in the drive-thru.
