There’s A National Mullet Championship For Kids And These Kiddos Brought It | Kayla

There’s an actual competition for who can grow the best mullet. That’s right, there’s an official Mullet Championship for kids.

According to NBC 5 Chicago, small business owner Kevin Begole noticed a huge uptick in kids growing out the luscious locks, and decided to have a local competition.

Begole discussed the popularity in the event:

“That really blew up. We actually had to cap at 500 kids, because we were getting hundreds of entries a day, and I couldn’t imagine going through a contest with thousands of kids.

We obviously look for the whole ‘business in the front, party in the rear.’ Within the mullet community, if you can look straight on at somebody and see their hair short in the front and necessarily tell what’s in the back… And then when they turn their head and you see that long flow of hair, that’s a solid mullet.”

In order to enter, a somebody must submit a front and sideview picture of the kid’s mullet, along with a $10 entry fee, and the money goes to a local pediatric hospital.

The pics are then uploaded to Facebook, and fans get to vote on the best one.

“Some of these kids have had a mullet for four or five years already. If they’re eight years old and they’ve had a mullet for four years, that’s half their life and they definitely own it.”

Begole also stated it’s all for the fun, and allowing some of these small town kids to have their few minutes of fame:
