Jason Kelce, a former NFL player and popular football icon, is making headlines as fans react to his look-alike contest organized in Philadelphia. Recently, Kelce himself has reacted to this contest. He took a funny dig at how any overweight white guy with a beard resembles him.
In one of the video clips of the Monday Night Countdown show from ESPN, Scott Van Pelt, his cohost, playfully teased him about his look-alikes.
Kelce downplayed his physical appearance by saying,
"Any overweight white guy with a beard looks just like me!"
He also lightly joked about the contest itself.
"It's an easy competition."
Even though the mood was fun, Kelce shared who he thought should win. He liked a contestant who wore a cardigan like his own famous Big Lebowski sweater.
The recent look-alike contest held at the beer festival in Philadelphia has created a mad frenzy of comments and posts online. Look-alikes with thick, well-groomed beards and buzzed short hair that resembled the retired NFL star gathered to participate in the event, and some even paid homage to Kelce's viral moments.
One of the most popular videos that created a viral sensation was Kelce's shirtless reaction during the Chiefs-Bills game. Travis Kelce, Jason Kelce's brother, secured and notched a touchdown at the game, sparking the reaction from him.
When the contest took place, locals and fans of the former Philadelphia Eagles star were excited, and it was captured on camera. Social media influencer @lexaprotagonist was the brain behind the event.
Kelce reacted to the contest with a mix of humor and humility. He jokingly said that the fact that there are many people who resemble him closely is a disheartening feeling. In the ESPN episode for Monday Night Countdown Show, he mentioned,
"Do you know how disheartening it is to know that there's nothing unique about you at all?"
In this video, we see Jason Kelce's versions gather and throw antics as they try their best to resemble the NFL player closely. The sheer number of people who looked like him made the video come off as humorous to netizens.
