Tavia Hunt Announces New Role at Kansas City as Chiefs QB Shows True Character With Gesture for Texas Tech Student

Kansas City isn’t just about football—it’s about vibes, community, and showing up for each other. Sure, the Chiefs bring the hype on game days, but their impact runs way deeper than touchdowns and trophies. And leading the charge off the field? Someone who’s just as passionate about giving back as she is about the game.

Tavia Hunt, wife of Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, stays repping KC in all the best ways. She and Clark recently served as honorary chairs for the Kansas City Police Foundation Gala, an event dedicated to backing local law enforcement. The night was stacked—comedian and Chiefs superfan Rob Riggle brought the energy as emcee, while NFL Chief Security Officer Cathy Lanier dropped an inspiring keynote. After the event, Tavia hit up Instagram to show some love, saying, “We are proud to support the KCPD and deeply grateful for their dedication to keeping our community safe.”

But let’s be real—Tavia Hunt’s not just making guest appearances at fancy events. She’s been in her community service era for years. As the director of the Chiefs Women’s Organization (CWO), she’s leading the charge with the wives and girlfriends of players, getting hands-on with everything from feeding families to building homes. She’s not about just throwing money at a cause—she’s about showing up, putting in the work, and making real connections.

And KC? It’s always been home for her. Fun fact: she actually started with the Chiefs as a PR intern back in 1991 while still in college. Now, she and Clark are making sure the Chiefs’ legacy isn’t just about winning rings—it’s about making an impact where it counts. “It’s important for Clark and me to invest and give back to this community,” she once said. And if there’s one thing Tavia Hunt proves, it’s that being part of the Chiefs fam means more than just loving football—it’s about loving KC.

Patrick Mahomes takes a viral moment and turns it into an absolute W

Hitting a 94-foot putt in front of Patrick Mahomes? Already legendary. But what happened next? Straight-up unreal. A Texas Tech student went viral after draining the insane shot at a Red Raiders basketball game, then celebrated like a boss with a mid-air shoulder bump with Mahomes, who was just vibing courtside. But the real plot twist came a few days later on the Today show—when Mahomes hit him with a surprise that had everyone (especially his mom) absolutely losing it.

In a surprise video message, Mahomes casually dropped the bomb that Texas Tech Athletics would be covering his tuition next fall. And because Mahomes doesn’t do anything halfway, he also made him an honorary member of Team Mahomes and his NIL partnership with Adidas. “We’ll be sending a nice care package your way to support your golf game,” Mahomes added, because let’s be real, this dude’s got the touch.

Blake Porter—the guy behind the now-iconic putt—was straight-up shaken. He immediately hugged his mom, who was full-on sobbing, while repeating, “Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, that’s so cool.” Today host Savannah Guthrie even joked that his mom was probably the most hyped—because, hello? Free tuition? That’s a major W for the whole fam.

And get this—Porter almost didn’t even make it inside the arena that night. He showed up late, barely got in, and then somehow hit the shot of his life. And when he spotted Mahomes chilling courtside, running over for the chest bump just felt right. “I like to chest-bump people. There’s Patrick Mahomes. I didn’t even think about it,” he said. Safe to say, this moment is officially locked in the Texas Tech history books.
