Tight end Travis Kelce and head coach Andy Reid were spotted with pro wrestling legend Ric Flair ahead of the Kansas City Chiefs ' preseason matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers .
The circumstances surrounding the celebrities' meeting are unclear, but the summit between Kelce, Reid, and Flair took place in Tampa Bay on August 21 and was commemorated in a post on The Nature Boy's official Twitter account.
Flair, now 77 years old, is one of professional wrestling's most recognizable patriarchs and a beloved cultural icon who has made endless cameos in American pop culture since his introduction to the mainstream in the early 1970s.
