Travis Hunter, Colorado's standout two-way player and Heisman Trophy winner, showcased his versatility in more ways than one during Polynesian Bowl week. On Thursday, Hunter joined the Polynesian Bowl All-Stars at the Polynesian Cultural Center.

Adding another role to his impressive resume, Hunter judged touchdown dance celebrations during the bowl’s practice session, as highlighted in a video posted on X.

Among the participants, Ohio State signee Epi Sitanilei stole the spotlight with a dynamic performance, flipping his way through the end zone.

Hunter’s involvement wasn’t limited to football or dance judging. He spent time with children at Shriners Hospital, as shared in an Instagram post by the Polynesian Bowl. The photo showed Hunter, dressed in a black T-shirt and glasses with his signature dreadlocks, holding a smiling child and a teddy bear featuring the Shriners Hospitals for Children logo.

The second day of the Polynesian Bowl brought more excitement as practices shifted to the North Shore at Kahuku High School. Special guests included former Notre Dame star Manti Te’o, adding a touch of inspiration to the preparations for Friday night’s game.

Hunter, who also holds the title of 2022 Polynesian Bowl MVP, continues to make a lasting impact, whether it’s through his athleticism, community outreach, or infectious enthusiasm for the game and its culture.

On "The Travis Hunter Show," Hunter shared his thoughts about Beck’s earnings.

“How do you get $10 million? Where’s my $10 million? How are people getting this much money, bro? Hold up, let me go test this out,” Hunter said. “Let me go back. I’m going back to college. Let me see if I can get $100 million. Let me go see if I can win another Heisman because $10 million, I ain’t make that in college. Let me go hit the portal.”

Hunter’s comments brought humor to the NIL landscape’s staggering growth available to college athletes.
