'Fashion icons': Cheesecake Factory compares Travis Kelce's Buffalo outfit to takeout bag
Travis Kelce took his outfit to go.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end wore an outfit with a familiar color scheme on Saturday while arriving in Buffalo, New York for Sunday's game against the Bills. Kelce's mustard blazer and pants, burgundy beanie and striped turtle-neck bared a uncanny resemblance to a Cheesecake Factory takeout bag, the company observed.
Kelce strutted the look in a slow-motion video shared by the Chiefs' X (formerly Twitter) account captioned "Beanie szn."
The Cheesecake Factory did not hesitate to get in on the fun. The restaurant chain shared a side-by-side comparison of Kelce's outfit and their bag design with the caption: "??Fashion Icons."

The post, which had more than half a million views by Monday morning, had fans rolling.
"This is incredible!! 10 out of 10!!! No notes," one said. And another: "Well played, social team!"
Not everyone was here for the outfit, though. "One is bad enough, but I can't believe there are two things with that ugly pattern and colors," posted one X user.
Cheesecake Factory spokesperson Donald Evans said in a statement that the company likes to "have fun inserting our iconic take-out bag, our famous 'brown bread' and our legendary cheesecake into the online conversation."
The company has "loved seeing our fans’ reaction to our social posts Sunday," he said.
