According to historians, the mullet has been around since Ancient Greece — but we think this year's USA Mullet Championship winners have really perfected the look.
Each year, the competition is held to award the best mullet-wearers from all over the country and every age group, from kids to teens to adults. The grand prize winners in both the kids and adults category walk away with a cash prize of $5,000 and a brand new GoPro camera, and the winner of the teen category takes home a $1,000 cash prize and a new GoPro.
Take a look at the winners (as well as some of our favorite finalists) from the 2024 USA Mullet Championship.

2024 wasn't Mason's first year competing in the championship — in fact, back in 2022, he was the only kid from California to vie for the big prize. He was 11 years old back then, so he was entered into the Kid category.

Of her mullet, she said, "I hope to one day be a champion like my momma, who happens to be the 2023 National Femullet Champion... no big deal or anything. I got my dream 'femullet' two years ago after scoring my first career goal in my first ever ice hockey tournament. I play for the Philadelphia Freeze, an all inclusive, special needs ice hockey team."

Avery Quiroz of San Antonio, Texas was a Kid finalist this year with his mullet, "The Texas Waterfall."
Of his mullet, he said, "I’ve had this mullet going for two years now. I was inspired by my uncle that I look up to. It looks awesome when I wear my baseball cap on the field and it flows in the wind."
Teen Finalist — Ian Hughson
USA Mullet Championships/Mega
Ian Hughson of Corning, N.Y. was a Teen finalist this year with his mullet, "Red Lettuce."
Of his mullet, he said, "So there I was, a hot July day and I was washing my dad's '86 'vette. On my feet, I wore Carolinas. In my ears, 'Thunderstruck' was playing. On my head, I was sporting a high and tight, but in my heart, I knew that wasn't right.
I said to my mom, 'Can I grow a mullet?' She said, 'No.' I asked again in September. She said, 'We'll see.' It was the only thing I wanted for Christmas. She finally said. 'OK.'
From that point on, the flow started to grow."
Teen Finalist — AJ Parkison
USA Mullet Championships/Mega
AJ Parkison of Sandwich, Ill. was a Teen finalist this year with his mullet, "Reba."

Adult Finalist — Nathan Lofy
USA Mullet Championships/Mega
Nathan Lofy of Sayner, Wis. was an Adult finalist this year with his mullet, "Ginga J."
Of his mullet, he said, "After letting it grow for 3 years, on a hot sweltering day working outside I decided some needed to go, but I couldn’t chop off all the hard work. So naturally the only solution was to chop some off the top and sides, but leave the party in the back!"
Adult Finalist — Laney G
Laney G of Las Vegas, Nev. was an Adult finalist this year with their mullet, "It's Showtime."
Of their mullet, they said, "The day I first got my mullet, I couldn't go back. I've had one ever since, each one slightly different from the last. I love experimenting with them and letting my hair stylist put his art on my head!"
