“I think it’s the best thing ever,” Burd, a lifelong fan of Jason’s Eagles, told Travis, claiming that the public’s enamorment was due to there being something so “American” and “classic” about the couple’s love.
“I appreciate that. I don’t know how I did it because she was not into sports, so I don’t know how the f**k I did it,” Travis responded.
“You did it because you called her out,” Burd said, referencing Travis revealing that he attempted to give Swift a bracelet with his phone number while attending her concert at Arrowhead Stadium last summer during an episode of ‘New Heights’ prior to their relationship,“Honestly, my take on it, not that you want to spend time talking about it for the five thousandth time, but I just think there is something that makes everyone feel like the world is kind of like high school, where the most popular popstar and beloved musician somehow met the most popular beloved athlete and they actually fell in love and it’s just real,” Burd added. “Anyone who hates on it is a bitter loser, but I think a lot of people who you would maybe expect to hate on it, love it, and they acknowledge they love it because it’s just so — there is something so American about it …There is something classic about it.”
