When former Philadelphia Eagle Jason Kelce took a dip into a pool of chili recently, he surfaced missing a valuable piece of jewelry ever football player covets — his Super Bowl ring.
He announced the loss on his “New Heights” podcast.
The ring went missing when he and his brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce held The Great Lombaby Games at the University of Cincinnati, a competition between athletes and academics, per CBS Sports.
Part of the competition included participants diving into pools of Skyline chili.
As Jason Kelce surfaced, his ring did not.
“I legitimately lost my Super Bowl ring in this event,” Jason Kelce said. “They could not find it. … We have still yet to find it. All of this stuff has now been thrown away, so I think we can safely assume that my Super Bowl ring is now in a landfill someplace in the Cincinnati tri-state area. I didn’t think that would happen.”
He has started to get things rolling to replace the lost ring, per the outlet.
Jason Kelce has also put in an insurance claim, but is doubting a happy ending there.
“We’ve already put the insurance claim in, which the insurance company might have some things to say about whether they’re going to cover that,” Jason Kelce said.
Jason Kelce, who played center for the Eagles, announced his retirement earlier this year. The Eagles won Super Bowl LII, which provided him with his only Super Bowl ring.
How old is this man child?
What a jerk
