Jason Kelce, the former Philadelphia Eagles center, was in the holiday spirit as he appeared in a Santa Claus suit and distributed gifts to fans at Lambeau Field before the Green Bay Packers hosted the New Orleans Saints.

Jason Kelce is one of the best sports television entertainers, always full of innovative ideas and engaging with NFL fans. Former Philadelphia Eagles center and ESPN football commentator had a great game before Monday Night Football‘s Green Bay Packers vs. New Orleans Saints match at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
Kelce, aware that the game was Christmas-themed, dressed up in a Santa Claus costume, sharing the holiday cheer by handing out the cheese Packers fans love, known to proudly wear yellow cheese as their heads, called cheeseheads. Cheeseheads can trace their origins back to the fact that Wisconsin leads the country in cheese-making; it is the single state that produces more than 25% of it, so it is something local.
ESPN Milwaukee posted a video of Jason Kelce dressed up as Santa Claus before the game, showing how much he enjoyed the role. Kelce and ESPN presenter Scott Van Pelt, dressed as Buddy the Elf, loved walking Green Bay’s streets and even ran into the Grinch. “You better behave. Go away!” yelled Kelce and Van Pelt when they saw the character nearby.
Kelce visited Lambeau Field, home of the Packers, with children and gave them early Christmas presents. The surprise continued as they went around the city, showing the love and appreciation for the season. In the stadium, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce’s brother gave cheese to fans in all shapes and sizes, including whole cheese. Kelce even took a big bite, and some Green Bay Packers fans ate some of the cheese without washing their hands. This is a good lesson on proper hygiene in sports events.
