 Some children have mullets. Whether they decided to grow one themselves or their parents foisted one upon them, it's not for us to say. Some people like to judge mullets. They'll contemplate a line-up of people with the retro hairdo and spend a bit of time ranking them. At the collision point between the kids with mullets and the judges of mullets, you can find the USA Kids Mullet Championships: a celebration of youngsters whose hair styles suggest not only business at the front, but also party at the back. This year's competition took place online, and crowned its champion last Friday. Coming out on top was Rory Ehrlich of Pottstown, Pennsylvania, who has given his mullet the name 'Cheddar Wiz'. It is a classic of the genre – spiky hair on top, close cropped sides and long, long locks that reach down to his shoulder blades at the back. Rory's genuine grin in the official pictures betray his true feelings: this kid really, really loves his haircut. 'You can find his mullet rounding 3rd base with all that shiny 'cheddar' blowing in the wind,' the official championship website says, confusingly. 'When his mullet is not on the field, it's out doing farm chores with his cows. Usually paired with homemade jorts, a Philadelphia sports jersey, and a Whiz Wit.' Rory's effort is, if anything, more impressive from the side (Picture: USA Mullet Championships/Mega) A truly jaw-dropping barnet worn by Brantley Kirwin of Jacksonville, North Carolina (Credits: USA Mullet Championships/Mega) For those not acquainted with Pennsylvania culture, a 'Whiz Wit' is one of the most popular ways of serving the famous Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. The 'Whiz' refers to the questionable dairy liquid topping Cheez Whiz, which also inspired the name of Rory's hairdo. His winning mullet beat out competition from across the United States, gather){kind=link}
