Jimmy Fallon Releases Fake NFL Ads Used to Beg Taylor Swift Fans to Watch Chiefs Game She Wasn’t At

Taylor Swift failed to attend Sunday night's Chiefs game, as she had plans to celebrate at the MTV VMAs for her new music video "Patient Zero" and to receive awards. Despite her absence, the NFL apparently attempted to entice Taylor Swift fans, known as "Swifties," to watch the Chiefs-Dolphins game through fake advertisements. During his monologue on "The Tonight Show," Jimmy Fallon ridiculed the league for airing these deceptive promos.

"It's Chiefs versus Dolphins," the deep-voiced announcer proclaimed, adding, "And you-know-who is definitely going to be there. That's right, it's Taylor! Dolphins cornerback Reese Taylor!" Fallon expressed his disbelief, exclaiming, "You know what I'm saying? Look at this other promo they ran." The subsequent ad promised, "A giant star will be in the house," with the cryptic initials "T.S." sparking immediate recognition of "Trey Smith," the Chiefs' offensive guard.

Fallon's outrage was palpable, as he mocked the confusion created by these misleading advertisements. In a final attempt, the ad claimed, "This game is going to be explosive. A complete blowout, because a certain Taylor will be there. It's Taylor Farms lettuce!" Nevertheless, none of these ads were actually broadcasted by the NFL; they were ingeniously crafted by the team at "The Tonight Show." Watch Fallon's full segment in the video above.
