Forget the sleigh; apparently, Santa\u2019s been trading reindeer for horsepower, and we can only assume Jason\u2019s baritone bellow helped pick the playlist for the ride. Rumor has it, Rudolph\u2019s GPS is powered by cheesesteaks and Philly grit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelce has been known to belt out a tune or two before\u2014he\u2019s already proven he can harmonize as well as he can pancake defenders. But this track, with its mix of holiday cheer and whimsical charm, might just cement his status as Philadelphia\u2019s unofficial King of Christmas. (Step aside, Gritty.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collaboration with Mt. Joy is pure magic. You can feel the fun they had recording it\u2014whether Jason&#8217;s crooning about Santa\u2019s questionable choice of ride or playfully making us all wonder how many football players it takes to fit inside an Astrovan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you\u2019re looking for a way to get into the holiday spirit while also picturing Jason Kelce in an ugly Christmas sweater, holding a mic like it\u2019s the Lombardi Trophy, <em>Santa Drives an Astrovan<\/em> is your jam. It\u2019s festive, it\u2019s Philly, and just like Kelce, it\u2019s impossible not to love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out Santa Drives an Astrovan below, follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/aphillyspecialchristmas\">A Philly Special Christmas on Instagram<\/a> and be sure to order your own copy of <a href=\"https:\/\/phillyspecialchristmas.com\/\">A Philly Special Christmas Party<\/a> today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hx-htsUABQg?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While you&#8217;re hear, you might as well check out <em>Maybe This Christmas<\/em> with Jason Kelce and Stevie Nicks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/A_Eyn8yuL2o?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce isn\u2019t just a beast on the field; he\u2019s proving to be a legend in the studio too.
