Jason and Travis Kelce started the season talking about castrating bulls on their new podcast.
They will end it by making NFL history in Super Bowl 57 on Sunday.
In a "mind-boggling" scenario, when Jason's Philadelphia Eagles face Travis' Kansas City Chiefs it will be the first time that brothers play against each other in the NFL's championship game.
"You realise it could happen, I don't think we ever thought it would though," said Jason. "It's got to be a lottery pick kind of probability."
During Super Bowl week in Phoenix, their mother Donna has become arguably as famous as her sons, speaking to media from around the world about the 'Kelce Bowl'.
And if the story was not already surreal enough, there could be another addition to the family this weekend.
Brothers reaching New Heights

Jason and Travis Kelce have both been in the NFL for at least 10 years now, winning one Super Bowl each.
They have each had numerous Pro Bowl selections, meaning they are the NFL's best in their positions - centre and tight end, respectively.
But last summer they wanted to start a new venture, a podcast named New Heights after Cleveland Heights, the suburb where they grew up in Cleveland, Ohio.
On the first episode, Jason talks about getting very hands on with some cows he purchased last summer. That set the tone, and the topics have got more random while the brothers have got more relaxed.
New Heights is about football, family and fun, and it was one of the most popular podcasts in the US even before talk of the 'Kelce Bowl'.
On last week's episode Jason said he was "already over it" and they tried to play it down. But now they have fully embraced the media circus.
They are selling 'Kelce Bowl' merchandise and recorded the latest episode on 'radio row', where media broadcast around the clock during Super Bowl week.
Body slams and Bambi
At 35, Jason is two years older and in another episode Travis ed how, when growing up, his big brother once body slammed him through a wooden floor in their living room.
To avoid getting caught immediately, they covered the hole with their couch. Boys will be boys.
Travis has been surprised that most of the questions during the numerous media opportunities this week have been about who won the most fights growing up.
"Jason won every fight but one - and that was the last one!" he said. "He stopped fighting me after that."
That must have been when a sudden growth spurt meant Travis caught up with his older brother.
"It hit like lightning," said Jason. "Overnight, he went from an uncoordinated Bambi to a full blown stallion. I was like 'where did Seabiscuit come from">
