Travis Kelce has a lot on his plate this year.

The tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs is trying to lead his team to another Super Bowl. However, that's easier said than done when the Denver Broncos are leading the AFC West at the moment.
Beyond football, Kelce's schedule is even more packed. He hosts New Heights, the hugely popular sports podcast, with his brother Jason. And while there hasn't been an announcement of a second season of the game show he hosts, Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity, #87 also has a restaurant to run and an acting career to launch.
On top of it all, there's also that small matter of a wedding to plan.
So when we heard that he's joining an investment firm to purchase a stake in Six Flags, we wondered how the man found the time.
Travis Kelce Loves Six Flags
Thanks to a merger last year, the theme park company not only owns Six Flags amusement parks across the country, but also Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, California, Cedar Point in Kelce's home state of Ohio, and Worlds of Fun in Kansas City.
"I am a lifelong Six Flags fan and grew up going to these parks with my family and friends," said Kelce in a statement. "The chance to help make Six Flags special for the next generation is one I couldn't pass up."
Jana Partners, the firm Kelce has partnered with, now owns 9 percent of Six Flags' shares. That's worth approximately $200 million.
Kelce also announced the news on his Instagram account.
"To all my fellow theme park and amusement park lovers," Kelce wrote. "I have some exciting news!!! Couldn't pass up the opportunity to continue the tradition and make Cedar Point and Six Flags even more special for the next generation of families! Excited to partner with JANA Partners as an investor in Six Flags. So crazy to even imagine this is real, but you gotta love it when life comes full circle."
How Is the Wedding Planning Going?
Online rumors say the Kelce and Taylor Swift are planning a small, private wedding. There are differing reports on where the venue might be, or even if one has been chosen.
However, now that Kelce has bought some sway in the amusement park industry, getting married on a roller coaster could be fun.
