This One’s for the Plot 🎬🏀
I went to a Knicks game with Taylor… And we had the best time. She was incredible. – Ben Stiller
At first, I thought Ben Stiller on New Heights seemed a little random. But then I remembered he’s in Happy Gilmore 2 with Travis Kelce, and it all made sense; they’re buds. Throw in the fact that the Severance season 2 finale is dropping soon, and suddenly, this is the most productive guest spot of Stiller’s career.

All that, and still, the real highlight of his appearance had nothing to do with Adam Sandler or trending sci-fi office shows (love Severance episodes though). It was Stiller mentioning that he once went to a Knicks game with Taylor Swift, and then Travis immediately using the opportunity to try and make that happen again.

Ben Stiller Went to a Knicks Game With Taylor Swift
“By the way, I went to a Knicks game with Taylor,” Stiller told the Kelce brothers, “She was there, this was, like, 10 years ago, and I was there with my son, and she literally—we FaceTimed my daughter, who’s a huge Swiftie. She’s 23 now. And we had the best time. She was incredible.”
Travis just said, “Oh, nice. I appreciate that. I think the same thing, so it’s perfect.”
Then, like it was no big deal, he threw in, “Maybe we can get Taylor to another Knicks game.”
This is where I need to pause and make one thing very clear: If this was just an off-the-cuff comment and not an actual plan, I will be personally offended.

Travis Kelce at MSG? It Might Finally Happen
The Kelce brothers have obviously been to a lot of major sporting events, but Madison Square Garden for NBA games? That’s apparently still on Travis’ bucket list.
“I’ve always told myself I want to go to a game in Madison Square Garden,” he said. “I’ve been telling myself I’m gonna go when the Knicks are good and it’s rocking.”
A bold stance from a guy who grew up a Cleveland Cavaliers fan. But fair enough, because the Knicks are currently sitting at +3000 to win the NBA Championship. Not exactly favorites, but definitely still in the mix (especially if you’re asking Ben Stiller).
Count us out. Keep it coming. https://t.co/dNItHIEPfd

Stiller was like, “Yeah, I can hook that up,” before immediately joking that the Kelce brothers probably don’t need help getting into MSG. Jason, keeping it real as always, jumped in with, “I need help.”
The Two Things We Deserve from This
Look, all I’m saying is I’m very emotionally invested in this happening. Because if we get Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce courtside at MSG, we also get the immediate follow-up benefit of Ben Stiller standing next to the Kelce brothers and looking approximately 4-foot-11.
