A video posted by the Philadelphia Eagles' account on X shows the former football center making his entrance in front of a crowd by positioning himself on top of a lifeguard chair in the middle of the audience.
Soon after, he grabs his shorts and rips them off, stripping down to just his underwear, which also bore patriotic colors. Onlookers cheered, smiled, and laughed as he got off the chair and made his way into the event.
"We have no words... @eaglesautism | #FlyEaglesFly," the caption read. Commenters on the post were not surprised by his entrance.
"That's pure Jason Kelce right there. Most players retire and disappear. Kelce climbs on a lifeguard chair in a flag Speedo because he genuinely loves his people," one comment read.
"Wouldn't expect less for Jason Kelce," another person said.
In another post on X, the Philadelphia Eagles shared a photo of Kelce without his shorts, writing, "This is what happens when Jason brings pants for Jason."
The caption was in reference to Kelce often admitting that he tends to forget to prepare for trips.

Back when the former athlete played in the 2024 American Century Championship presented by American Century Investments in Lake Tahoe, he admitted that it was his wife, Kylie, who brought his khaki pants.
'I mean, if I'm being honest Kylie went out and bought them last minute and packed them for me," he said in response to a post on X from NBC Sports Bay Area & CA.
Kelce has also never been afraid of stripping down. The dad of four famously made headlines when he took off his shirt to cheer on his brother Travis at a Kansas City Chiefs vs. Buffalo Bills game in 2024.
He later recounted the experience to PEOPLE in September 2024, expressing that "It was a fun one."
"Part of it is the Bills Mafia in that tailgate and like everything before the game to during the game. It was a whole experience that I had never really taken part in," he said.
"But Buffalo really... I mean, it was part weather, part the fact that it was such a huge playoff game for both teams. The atmosphere and everything was just so special that evening," he continued.

"Yeah, I think I kind of got possessed by fandom on that occasion," he said, adding with a laugh, "Probably alcohol as well, but we'll leave it at fandom."

The GHOSTBUSTERS Universe Reportedly Expanding With New Movie and Animated Projects in the Works — GeekTyrant
The Ghostbusters franchise isn't slowing down anytime soon. According to a new rumor, Sony is quietly building out a slate of new projects that could significantly expand the world of proton packs and paranormal threats across both live-action and animation. The scoop comes from insider MyTimeToShineHello, who posted on X: 'A new Ghostbusters movie is in development at Sony + they are planning a trilogy of animated films and multiple seasons of an animated show.' While this hasn't been officially confirmed by Sony, it tracks with the studio's recent momentum after Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and the renewed efforts to grow the franchise beyond just films. Director Gil Kenan, who helmed Frozen Empire and co-wrote it with Jason Reitman, recently gave an update on the animated series that's been brewing over at Netflix. On A Trip to the Movies with Alex Zane, Kenan said: 'It's very exciting, I just watched an entire presentation for the show. I've seen the sets and the environments and I just saw my first glimpse of a world of supernatural characters as realized by our brilliant creative team.' He added: 'The work is being done as we speak. It's in what we call, 'full development.' The scripts are being written and art is being created.' This animated series was originally announced back in June 2022 as a partnership between Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation. Development had been paused while Kenan and Reitman focused on their live-action sequels, but now it sounds like things are fully back in motion. Kenan previously said: 'Jason [Reitman]… we take the responsibility and the joy of being the keepers of the flame of Ghostbusters very seriously… we definitely are continuing the conversation of telling big Ghostbuster stories on the big screen. And stay tuned. There'll be more. There'll be more about that later.' When talking about what he'd like to see in these other projects, he said: "I'd love to explore how other cultures, or at least I'd love to see as a fan, how other cultures create specific threats and specific ways to deal with them in future installments." For fans of the franchise, this is a pretty big deal. Ghostbusters has always been more than just the movies — from The Real Ghostbusters in the '80s to Extreme Ghostbusters in the late '90s, the animated side of the universe was a lot of fun. Kenan and Reitman are obviously aiming to tap into that tradition with a fresh, supernatural world built for a new generation. With multiple animated seasons, a possible animated film trilogy, and another live-action movie reportedly in the works, the Ghostbusters brand is lining up for a serious expansion.

Mel Brooks Producing VERY YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN Series Pilot for FX with Taika Waititi Directing — GeekTyrant
It looks like Mel Brooks' monster is getting a new lease on life and this time it will be on the small screen. FX is reportedly close to ordering a pilot for Very Young Frankenstein , a new comedy series inspired by Brooks' 1974 cult classic Young Frankenstein . Brooks himself has given it his blessing and will serve as executive producer, alongside a creative dream team from FX's What We Do in the Shadows . Stefani Robinson is writing and showrunning the series, with Taika Waititi set to direct the pilot. Garrett Basch, Kevin Salter (Brooks' longtime producing partner), and original Young Frankenstein producer Michael Gruskoff are also on board. 20th Television will produce the series. Details are being kept under wraps, but fans of Shadows might remember when Colin Robinson was turned into a baby and had to grow up again. So, there's a chance this new take could include some wild genre-bending antics in that same spirit. No casting news yet, but the tone and team suggest we're in for something clever and twisted. Young Frankenstein parodies the classic Frankenstein mythos with Gene Wilder playing Frederick Frankenstein (that's 'Fronkensteen'), a descendant of Victor Frankenstein who inherits his infamous grandfather's Transylvania estate. With the help of the bug-eyed Igor (Marty Feldman), Frederick sets out to clear the family name… by building his own monster. Naturally, things go hilariously off the rails. Shot in glorious black and white, the original also featured Peter Boyle as the monster, Cloris Leachman as the haunting Frau Blücher, Teri Garr, Madeline Kahn, and Brooks himself in multiple roles. The film remains one of Brooks' most iconic works, blending horror homage with comedic precision. Very Young Frankenstein is just the latest of Brooks' classics to be reimagined for a modern audience. It will be interesting to see how this turns.
