Jason Kelce is tired of watching dogs catch Frisbees during NFL halftime shows.

Kelce, 38, said the acts had been overdone and it was time for the halftime shows to get more creative.

“If I have to see another dog catch a Frisbee, I’m going to blow my brains out,” Kelce said on a recent episode of “New Heights.”

“If the dog jumped over a burning bridge, I’d be into it. But it’s just not that exciting to me. Like I could go to any park and watch some asshole play with a Frisbee and his dog.”

However, not all halftime shows involving dogs catching Frisbees were without incident. A dog named Eurie set the world record for longest Frisbee catch, with an 83-yard throw, during an Alliance of American Football league game in 2019.

The Denver Broncos’ halftime show on Sunday involved animals, but not dogs. They had kids riding sheep, a popular rodeo event. Children must hold on to the sheep as they run across the field.

Kelce was all for it, but his brother Travis was less enthusiastic. The Kansas City Chiefs star tight end said he thinks sheep slaughter is similar to dogs catching Frisbees.

The former Philadelphia Eagles star center said he just wants to get back to exciting halftime shows.

“I just want to get back to exciting halftime shows. It doesn’t have to be dangerous,” Jason said.

“That goes along with it, but I hear you,” Travis replied.

“I mean, yeah, dangerous is inherently exciting, but there are other ways to make it exciting,” Jason said.
