Travis Kelce chugs beer before getting University of Cincinnati diploma at 'New Heights'
Travis and Jason Kelce earned University of Cincinnati degrees, but were unable to take part in graduation ceremonies. Jason got a degree in marketing, but didn't attend commencement. Travis finished his remaining credit hours to complete his degree in interdisciplinary studies from the College of Arts and Sciences in 2022.
Dr. Neville Pinto, UC's president, wore a cap and gown Thursday night to deliver diplomas to both players as they hosted their "New Heights" podcast event at Fifth Third Arena. Their parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, and UC athletic director John Cunningham joined them on stage.
Travis hugged Dr. Pinto, and chugged a beer on stage before receiving the keepsake.
Last year, Travis chugged a beer off a replica of the Lombardi trophy, before spiking it. Both brothers chugged beers at a recent Cleveland Cavaliers game.

The idea to end the event with the Kelce Brothers’ University of Cincinnati graduation ceremony was brilliant.
