Pictured: 2024 U.S. Mullet Championships

America’s most majestic mullet proved they’re a notch above the rest at this year’s annual U.S. Mullet Championships.

The famous ’80s “business in front, party in the back” hairstyle is celebrated each year with a contest inviting fans to choose their favorite mullet while raising funds for U.S. military veterans.

Contestants proudly displayed their affectionately nicknamed mullets as they competed in three categories this year: Kids, Teens and the coveted Mane event.

Finalists in each category battled for votes over the past few weeks, with many proudly sporting wraparound sunglasses and the stars and stripes flag as they showed off their retro hairstyles.

The winners of each of the three U.S. Mullet Championships were officially announced today.

The winners were decided by a combination of online voting by the public, charitable donations made on their behalf by their followers and points awarded by a panel of expert judges.

All donations made by mullet fans in support of their favorite mullets will go to former NFL star Jared Allen’s Homes For Wounded Warriors to help U.S. military veterans.

Mane event winner Todd Grubb and his mullet nicknamed ‘Flow Motion’ took home the grand prize by denying reigning champion and two-time winner Scott Salvadore and his mullet ‘The Lord’s Drapes’ a hat-trick.

Third place went to Holden Stevenus and his mullet nicknamed ‘Rebellious Ruffles’.

The trio faced stiff competition with a host of magnificent mullets, and the Mane Event finalists included contenders with nicknames such as ‘The Walmart Wolverine’, ‘The Florida Free Bird’ and ‘Le Baron Des Muléts’.

Todd, 59, of Galesburg, Michigan, repeated his success at last year’s 55+ Championship on an even bigger stage.

She started growing her mullet, nicknamed ‘Flow Motion,’ four years ago when she decided to stop cutting her hair during COVID.

During his entry in the contest, Todd paid tribute to his hairstylist, saying, “I’ve had a couple of amazing people cut my hair, but I owe it all to the Hair Maestro at George Salon in Portage, Michigan.”

Todd will receive a $5,000 cash prize, a Mullet Championship belt and a GoPro Hero12 Black action camera.

He will donate his prize money to Jared Allen’s Homes For Wounded Warriors organization.

Six-year-old Kamden Cunningham was declared the 2024 Kids Mullet Champion with his mullet nicknamed ‘The Kammander’, which he defiantly grew out after his older brother Karson cut his long hair off with a pair of nose hair trimming scissors.

Kamden, from Swoyersville, Pennsylvania, revealed the dramatic story behind her mullet during her entry in the contest.

Her entry reads: “I always sported gorgeous, all natural curls. On the more humid days, I sported a pretty cool afro.

‘One day my older brother decided he didn’t want me to have long hair anymore, so he found some nose hair scissors in the bathroom and took it upon himself to cut it off.

‘My mom cried when she saw the clump of curls she found upstairs, but we couldn’t leave my hair the way Karson had ‘styled’ it anymore.

“I wanted to grow my hair long, so we looked online for some hairstyle options and I chose a photo where the hairstyle was indeed a mullet. That’s how the Kammander was born.”

Second place went to seven-year-old Brody Byrne of South Boston, Massachusetts and his mullet nicknamed ‘Hair 2 Party.’

Three-year-old Killian Depew from Avoca, Philadelphia, finished third with his mullet nicknamed ‘Killi Ray Cyrus’ in tribute to mullet legend Billy Ray Cyrus.

The trio faced stiff competition with a series of magnificent mullets, and the Children’s Division finalists included contenders with nicknames such as “Lightning and Thunda,” “The Green Mountain Monster” and “School in Front, Detention in Back.”

Some of the contestants, all aged 12 or under, have been farming mullets all their youth, and there are several young children among the finalists.

Winner Kamden will also receive a $5,000 cash prize, a Mullet Championship belt and a GoPro Hero12 Black action camera.
