Travis Kelce bought Taylor Swift and his family a $1m Super Bowl suite, Shaquille O’Neal treated his mom to luxury purses and Georges St-Pierre cleared his parents’ debt… five ways athletes spent BIG on their loved ones after Travis Hunter’s generosity

In a heartwarming gesture of gratitude, Colorado football sensation Travis Hunter recently used his earnings from Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals to fulfill his mother’s lifelong dream: a stunning five-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home in Savannah, Georgia. The emotional moment was captured in a touching video on Hunter’s YouTube channel, showcasing his mother’s overwhelming joy and disbelief as she stepped into her new abode.

But Hunter’s generosity didn’t stop there. The 20-year-old also surprised his fiancée with a brand-new car and a dazzling diamond engagement ring, a gesture of love and commitment that the couple shared with their followers just last month.

In an age where athletes often make headlines for their extravagant lifestyles, Hunter’s actions serve as a powerful reminder of the profound impact of giving back to those who have supported us along the way.

Before Travis Hunter made headlines with his generous gesture towards his mother, several athletes across various sports had already demonstrated their gratitude by sharing their wealth with their loved ones in remarkable ways.

DailyMail.com now recounts these heartwarming stories of athletes going above and beyond for their families.

Travis Kelce paid for a $1million suite at the Super Bowl for Taylor Swift, family and friends

His parents Ed and Donna, brother Jason and sister-in-law Kylie all enjoyed the best seats 

While many coveted a seat at the Super Bowl in Las Vegas this past February, Travis Kelce’s $1 million suite stole the spotlight as the ultimate destination within the venue.

As the Kansas City Chiefs battled the San Francisco 49ers for the coveted Lombardi trophy, the tight end spared no expense to ensure that his family and girlfriend, Taylor Swift, enjoyed the best seats in the house.

According to sources reported by TMZ, Travis Kelce footed the bill for the lavish suite at Allegiant Stadium. When Super Bowl Sunday arrived, his mother Donna, father Ed, brother Jason, sister-in-law Kylie, Taylor Swift, and several other A-listers were treated to the luxury as Kelce and the Chiefs secured their third title in five years.

“I’m not really doing much different other than just counting how much money I’m spending on this damn Super Bowl for family and friends to come,” Kelce shared on the New Heights podcast before the game. “Just making sure I’m on top of those finances and losing all this money.”

The star-studded suite also hosted celebrities like Blake Lively, Ice Spice, Lana Del Rey, Quavo, Paul McCartney, and Miles Teller as they witnessed the Chiefs and 49ers battle it out in a dramatic game bound for the history books.

Fans can attribute Shaquille O’Neal’s dominance on the basketball court to his mother, Lucille.

Dr. Shaq, who clinched four NBA titles and three Finals MVP awards during his illustrious Hall-of-Fame career, always had a singular goal in mind: giving back to his mother. Despite amassing approximately $292 million in salary alone, O’Neal remained steadfast in his commitment to honoring his mother’s sacrifices.

The NBA legend once shared an endearing anecdote about his mother’s indifference towards designer accessories. Despite Lucille not being a fan of luxury purses, O’Neal surprised her on her birthday by purchasing not one, but two Louis Vuitton handbags.

“It was my mom’s birthday, and she don’t even like Louis purses,” O’Neal revealed to Patrick Bet-David in 2022. “I say ‘Come, let’s take a ride.’ And you know the bag [cost] two thousand. ‘No baby, don’t buy that.’ ‘Get two of them, Mom.’ That right there is what being wealthy and successful is to me.”
