Last October, the Internet issued a collective “awwww” when photos of Shane Lowry dressed as Travis Kelce to complement his daughter’s Taylor Swift costume began to make the rounds. Despite being a professional golfer by trade, the 6’ 1” Lowry looked the part of an all-pro tight end decked out in a full set of a pads with the number 87 emblazoned across his chest.

This was smack dab in the heart pigskin season, however, so the costume eluded the Kelce brothers … until Wednesday at the Truist Championship. That’s when Travis’ older brother Jason—former Super Bowl-winning lineman for the Philadelphia Eagles—discovered Lowry’s Kelce cosplay while teeing it up in the same pro-am group, leading to this excellent exchange.

Lowry seemed almost embarrassed at first, like he was hoping Kelce hadn’t seen the photo or, at the very least, was going to pretend like he hadn’t. But Kelce quickly put him at ease, even going as far as to compliment the accuracy of Lowry’s beard. On the scale of strange things Kelce has encountered since his brother started dating the biggest pop star in the world, an innocent Halloween costume is probably nothing more than a blip.
Perhaps this is even the start of a beautiful new friendship, though we have real concerns for the world’s beer supply should these two start throwing ‘em back together.
