In 2021, Duncan entered into a mullet competition he’d heard about in The Mullet That Changed My Life Facebook group. It was the brainchild of Kevin Bogola, the owner of a men’s clothing store in Michigan called Bridge Street Exchange. “Before COVID, I’d planned on doing the ‘Michigan Mudflap’ contest to find the best mullet in Michigan,” says Bogola. “But when things shut down, I also closed the store and shut the contest down.” He decided to reactivate the contest, though, eight months later when barber shops and salons were still under rules that limited the number of haircuts they could offer. “It was like lightning in a bottle,” he tells me. “We ended up filming the finals for ESPN. Then I decided to keep going and start a national search.”
