Eagles’ Jason Kelce, his brother Travis, and Jordan Mailata party — and sing — in Sea Isle
While Kelce and Co. appeared to have a lot of fun, it was ultimately all for a good cause.
On Wednesday afternoon, beloved Eagles center Jason Kelce was at the Ocean Drive in Sea Isle City, New Jersey, working a shift behind the bar during a normally slow time. But Kelce wasn’t alone — he was swarmed by fans and even joined by a couple friends — while tending bar for a good cause: autism awareness.
Kelce’s wife teaches students who are on the autism spectrum and since meeting some of her students, Kelce was inspired to play a part in raising awareness of autism through both the Eagles Autism Foundation and Team 62, his own charity.

And, of course, he chose to do so in the most Jason Kelce of ways, by bellying up to the bar and serving drinks to fans at his charity event.
Our own Mike Sielski was there to capture Kelce — who was joined by his brother Travis of the Kansas City Chiefs and fellow Eagles offensive lineman Jordan Mailata — in his element.
You can read the rest of Mike’s story, here.
But to understand the connection Kelce has with Eagles fans, it’s something you have to see with your own eyes.

Tending bar wasn’t the end of the festivities for Kelce. While every Eagles fans would lose to them in football, many might like their chances taking on this team of NFL stars in flip-cup or beer pong.
Unfortunately, they would be wrong.
