At the end of their live podcast, the brothers were brought onstage to receive their honors and Travis celebrated in typically flamboyant style.
It initially appeared to be a surprise for both brothers, with the university’s director of athletics, John Cunningham, taking to the stage with the President, Neville Pinto, to present them with the awards.
They both genuinely appeared humbled, but it didn’t take the younger Kelce brother to return to form. The Chiefs hero downed a beer, slammed the empty can to the ground and yelled into a microphone at the end of his speech: ‘You’ve got to fight for your right to party!’The Kelces even had their parents, Donna and Ed, on the stage with them for the moment.
The Cincinnati Bearcats X account tweeted: ‘A surprise commencement we’ll never forget. Congratulations to Travis and Jason on (finally) picking up those diplomas!
