Kelsey Anderson, Charity Lawson & More Celebrate Knicks Win and World Cup Games: ‘Core Memory’
Go team, go!
This past weekend was filled with major events in the sports world.
With both the World Cup games and NBA championships taking place, people from all over the world gathered to watch the games unfold.
And our Bachelor Nation stars were among the many viewers to join the festivities.
Multiple fan favorites such as Kelsey Anderson, Joey Graziadei, Tyler Cameron, Justin Glaze, Greg Grippo, and Tanner Courtad gathered in Los Angeles to watch the U.S. compete in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Each Bachelor Nation star documented their time at the game on social media, and Tanner shared it was the “best sporting event [he’s] ever been to.”
Tanner and Kelsey also revealed that she and Joey ended up losing a bet due to the final score being one goal more than they thought it’d be, and she documented Joey’s shock online.
“Golden Bachelor” star Kathy Swarts attended her first World Cup game and watched from Houston with her daughter Kaitlin.
In addition to the global football competition, the NBA Finals took place in San Antonio, Texas, where the New York Knicks took home the championship against the San Antonio Spurs.
Numerous Bachelor Nation stars who live in New York took to the city and social media to celebrate the team’s victory.
Former Bachelorette Charity Lawson posted a video of her and Dotun Olubeko walking the streets of NYC celebrating, and wrote, “core memory indeed - go ny go ny go!!!! 🏀🏆💙”
Other stars like Matt James, Lexi Young, Natasha Parker, Pieper James, Dustin Kendrick, Alicia Holloway, Davia Esther, Cat Carter, Zoe McGrady, Sarafiena Watkins, and Revian Chang all recorded and shared their reactions to the win online.
Newlyweds Jasmine Goode and Melissa Marie even celebrated the championship at their wedding reception, as the game took place at the same time.
So fun!
We love seeing our Bachelor Nation stars enjoy these different events and cheer on their favorite teams. What an exciting weekend!
