TAMPA, FL, UNITED STATES, October 25, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — College HUNKS Hauling Junk and Moving^®, the award-winning franchise leader in moving and junk removal, is thrilled to announce it has been officially selected to take flight at the 2024 Red Bull Flugtag event, set to take place in Tampa, Florida on Saturday, November 9, 2024. Red Bull received more than 1,000 applicants, and College HUNKS was selected among just a few teams to participate. Building on the momentum of its crowd-favorite performance over a decade ago at the 2011 Flugtag, the College HUNKS team is back with even bigger ambitions, a bolder flying machine, and an even stronger commitment to the community as Tampa continues to recover from two unprecedented hurricanes impacting the region.

Team College HUNKS was pivotal in hurricane relief efforts across Tampa Bay and hauled over 500 truckloads of debris. This is why the “HUNK of Flyin’ Junk” is a zero-emission, space-junk-hauling rocket truck made entirely from hurricane debris. The machine, piloted by the team’s mascot, CJ the College Junk Hunk, as well as Co-Founders Nick Friedman and Omar Soliman, aims to soar above the crowd while showcasing the company’s commitment to sustainability, creativity, and community impact.

“As a homegrown success story in Tampa, we’re incredibly excited to return to Red Bull Flugtag,” said Omar Soliman, Co-Founder of College HUNKS and veteran of the 2011 Flugtag event. “Our mission to ‘Move the World’ is more than a tagline—it’s the driving force behind everything we do, and much more relevant at this time. This year is even more important as our community recovers from Helene and Milton—we want to inspire the audience with resilience and dauntlessness– we’re flying even higher and farther, and we can’t wait to entertain our community with our performance and sustainable flying machine made from the storm debris.”

The “College HUNKS Flying Junk” team has evolved significantly since their 2011 appearance, when they captivated the audience with their high energy and teamwork. This time around, the new flying machine is designed to represent their future vision of one-day hauling intergalactic space junk, blending innovation and fun. The team’s theme aligns with the brand’s long-term goals and commitment to protecting the environment, while also weaving in the role they played in storm cleanup.

Supporting Causes That Matter

In addition to entertaining the Tampa audience, the College HUNKS team will once again use its Flugtag performance to support U.S. Hunger, a nonprofit organization it has partnered with to donate over 5 million meals to communities in need. Through their participation, they hope to raise awareness for childhood hunger and food insecurity while also spotlighting the company’s efforts to provide free moves for domestic violence survivors during Domestic Violence Awareness Month in October.

Team Roster

The flight crew is made up of the most energetic and creative leaders from College HUNKS, including:

Roman “Cool Runnings” Cowan – Team President, UT Alum 

Omar “Junkman” Soliman – Co-Founder, Reality TV Star and Flugtag veteran

Nick “Free Dive” Friedman – Co-Founder and movie producer/actor 

CJ “The College Junk” Hunk – The lovable mascot and pilot of the rocket truck

The team is poised to make a splash, combining leadership, creativity, and a shared love of daring challenges. College HUNKS Flying Junk promises to deliver a flight that embodies the company’s core values of Building Leaders and Moving the World while leaving a lasting impact on the Tampa community.
