RED WING, Minn. -- Three-year-old Brady Arneson recently took 1st place in the 2008 Minnesota Mullet Contest put on by Hockey Moms Magazine.

Brady’s older brother Blake won the top mullet award in 2005.

Their dad, Goodhue County Administrator Scott Arneson, also had amulet as a child, but the award wasn’t around back then.

The mullet peaked as a hairstyle in the 1990s, but has stuck around with Minnesota hockey players who like the let their hair hang out the back of their helmet, Arneson said.

Blake hasn’t worn a mullet since he won the award and Brady isn’t planning on keeping it around, saying he’s excited to cut it off for the warm summer months.

Cute kid. Glad to hear he’s ditching the mullet.

The Mullet. The newest way to display a ‘I'm With Stupid’ sign.

I love this typo:

“Scott Arneson, also had amulet as a child....”

Friend of yours?

[reagan_fanatic]

Yeehaaa!

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Business in the front, party in the back???

[6SJ7]

Even King Tut had "amulet".

[cripplecreek]

Don’t eat off the meteor Brady.

Ooooh yah. Business in da front, party in da back, you betcha. It’s part of da Minneesoota hockey uneeform, don’tchaknow dere!

When I was in high school in the early ‘80s in Virginia, you didn’t see many mullets. We had a particularly obnoxious mutation called the “rat tail”...one tiny bit of hair hanging down the back of the neck. I saw so many little boys wearing those and I HATED it.

Looks like “Barbie joins the Marines”.

[SJSAMPLE]

"Yeah. Those are space peanuts."

[envisio]

Hey! I had a mullet. It even had a perm in the back.

But I agree with you.

My mullet was chopped off around 1983. Prior to that, it was cool.

[Responsibility2nd]

The Mullet. Worn by proud trailer-trash residents everywhere.

[Mr. Brightside]

Here's the whole family:

[Hatheos]

I cry child abuse for making that kid wear a mullet at such a young age! LOL

[Mr. Brightside]

"Who do you love?"

[Bobkk47]

The official trailer-trash haircut of the U.S.

[Hyzenthlay]

I remember the ‘rat tail’ thing very well, as it was popular in my rural town when I was elementary-school age. However, my young friends and I thoroughly appreciated them because they were very conducive to hair-pulling... us girls were happy that the playing field was becoming more level.

I had an amulet as a child too - it wasn't in my hair though.

[Liberty Valance]

but even a mullet is still better than that emo crap.

A Mullet?!? This is Child Abuse! This poor kid will be mentally scarred for life. Where's Child Protective Services when you need them?

(off raiding a religious 'compound' with a SWAT Team)

[Mr. K]

aren’t there child abuse laws that should come into play here?
(just kiddng- cute kid)

[Petronski]

Little Brady is business up front, party out back.

[Billthedrill]

Not at all. I think it looks very attrac-

OK, you may have a point there...

[Moose4]

See, those aren’t really purebred mullets. Those are all some bizarre Darwinian hybrid of a mullet and ‘80s metal hair.

Billy Ray Cyrus. Now THAT, my friends, was a Kentucky Waterfall at its very best.

[Antoninus]

You're right. At least the mullet guys do real work for a living--driving trucks, fixing sinks, etc.

Emos, when they have jobs, invariably work at the comic book store or at the popcorn counter in the movie theater.

better than that emo crap

Hey (sniff) life is pain and (sniff) pain is life. Why can't you just leave me alone to cut myself in private? Why do you have to be such a Fascist?

[SWAMPSNIPER]

THIS, is a MULLET!

[Revolting cat!]

[Ranxerox]

LOL. Nice mullet, Dawg!

[TNCMAXQ]

Holy mullet of God!

[MinnesotaLibertarian]

Mullet? We used to just call that “hockey hair”.

[MinnesotaLibertarian]

Only until after I spent sometime outside of Minnesota did I realize that this hairstyle has the connotations it does in other parts of the country. I associate it with with teenage suburban hockey players.

[MinnesotaLibertarian]

Besides, who says you can't have underground credibility with a mullet? It worked for these Minnesota boys...

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

You call that a mullet kid? Now THIS is a mullet...

[Revolting cat!]

Self-portrait?

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Ouch....nah, I have big Texas hair! lol

[fieldmarshaldj]

She needs a shave.

[rabidralph]

All business in the front with a party in the back.

[rabidralph]

That looks like Brett Favre.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

Before I leave the surly bounds of earth to touch the face of bob, I have to know...

Is that a boy or a girl?
