Company owned by Chiefs’ Travis Kelce buys ownership of Missouri football team
Tight end Travis Kelce could arrive early to Chiefs training camp this summer.
While the Chiefs’ training dates haven’t been announced, the team usually starts preparation for the upcoming season in St. Joseph, Missouri in July.
That same month, the Saint Joseph Goats of the Arena League will play their final home game of the season.
That’s noteworthy because Kelce tangentially became an owner of the Goats on Thursday. Garage Beer, which is co-owned by Kelce and his brother, Jason, announced it had become owners of the Goats.
“Garage Beer — the crisp, uncomplicated lager co owned by Jason and Travis Kelce — is proud to officially announce that we are now owners of the St. Joseph Goats, a professional indoor football team from St Joseph, Missouri, competing in the Arena League.
“From the beer fridge to the front office, the Goats are now powered by the same crisp, uncomplicated energy that fuels Garage Beer. This is more than a sponsorship — it’s a bold, possibly confusing leap into the world of professional sports ownership, and we couldn’t be more excited.”
The Goats play their games at the St. Joseph Civic Arena and their X handle is actually @KansasCityGoats. So perhaps there will be a future rebranding or possibly a move to KC.
Here is the Garage Beer announcement.
The Goats are coached by Dorsey Golston III, who graduated from Southeast High and later played at Wyoming. Former Raytown High School/Mizzou receiver D’ionte “Boo” Smith is on the Goats roster.
