FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. ( FOX 56 ) — A popular 80’s hairstyle has made a comeback.
Often referred to as the “business-in-the-front, party-in-the-back,” the hairdo is formed by cutting the hair short on the top and sides of the head, allowing it to grow longer in the back.

“Yep, my bottom ribs,” Calvin clarified.
At the kickoff of Mullet Champ’s second round, Calvin was in 33rd place.
The rankings are based on 3 factors: public and judge votes, celebrity endorsements, and the amount of money raised for Jared Allen’s home for wounded warriors. Calvin said this charity has a special meaning to him.
