In an entertaining Instagram video posted on June 25, Kylie threw various drinks at Jason’s face as he wore a pair of goggles that obscured his vision. Despite the quirky challenge, Jason demonstrated an impressive ability to identify the beverages purely by taste, which captivated viewers and highlighted the couple’s fun chemistry. The video was meant to promote a special episode of Kylie’s podcast, “Not Gonna Lie with Jason,” which focuses on their experiences and adventures together.

As Kylie tossed the first drink, Jason took a decisive sip and confidently guessed, “I’m hoping that’s Garage Beer,” a brand co-owned by him and his brother, Travis Kelce. To their delight, he was correct, prompting laughs from Kylie and setting a lighthearted tone for the tasting game. With each subsequent drink, which included chardonnay and even pickle juice, Jason’s guesses displayed both skill and humour, drawing cheers from fans who watched the antics unfold.
Though the game occasionally took a messy turn, with drinks splashing onto Jason’s beard, the couple’s banter continued to entertain. Kylie jokingly remarked on the advantages and drawbacks of Jason’s beard during the game, as remnants of drinks seemingly became part of the challenge. Their laughter-filled interactions resonated with fans, emphasising their enjoyable rapport.
Outside of their lighthearted video, the couple is deeply committed to their charitable cause. Speaking to PEOPLE on June 24, Jason expressed his long-standing support for the Eagles Autism Foundation, which has played an essential role in raising funds for autism research and community support since its inception in Philadelphia. The retired football player noted the significance of the event, stating, “Eagles Autism Foundation has done a fantastic job… raising a ton of money for research, advocacy, programs, and support for families.”
The fundraiser spans several days, with Jason participating in various events, including bartending at local venues. During this year’s festivities, he expressed excitement about competing in the Beer Bowl, aiming to clinch the title of Beer Bowl Champion and secure a generous prize of $50,000 for the foundation. In good spirits, Jason remarked, “I am good, I’m good at anything really involving beer. I like to hold my own.”
Kylie was also an active participant in the fundraising activities, joining a yoga session led by influencer Katie Begley, known as Popstar Katie. Sharing her experience via social media, Kylie radiated enthusiasm, exclaiming how wonderful the class had been while rallying support for the cause.
Throughout the event’s duration, the Kelces connected with participants and fans alike, embodying a strong sense of community. Their involvement not only highlighted their commitment to a meaningful cause but also showcased the fun and lively aspects of their personal lives, blending advocacy with moments of joy.
As the couple continues to balance family life with public engagements, their alignment with charitable initiatives reflects a growing trend among public figures to use their influence for societal good. Not only do they engage in playful challenges, but they also leverage their popularity to raise awareness for critical issues—an inspiring combination that resonates with many.
The Eagles Autism Foundation Fundraiser remains a key attraction each year, bringing together sports fanatics and community advocates alike. With supporters like Jason and Kylie Kelce at the forefront, the event not only champions autism awareness but also cultivates an atmosphere of positivity and camaraderie among all its participants.
