Celebrating the mighty mullet
One of the most highly anticipated competitions at the 63rd annual Stawell Show will see an iconic hairstyle take centre stage.
The Stawell Show Mullet Competition celebrates the beloved mullet hairdo, which has defied the odds throughout the annuls of modern history to become one of the most recognisable ways to style hair.
The competition is offering prizes for five different categories – Men’s mullet, ladies’ mullet, under-16 mullet, longest mullet and the messiest/dirtiest mullet.
Dedicated young mullet enthusiast Zander had a crack at entering the competition last year, and in the wake of defeat, he’s carefully curated a magnificent mullet all year long, ready to take this year’s competition by storm.
He dropped by The Stawell Times-News office this week to give us a preview of his impressive mullet, laying down the challenge for mulletarians across the district to bring their A-game to the Stawell Show.
The Stawell Show Mullet Competition kicks of at 11am on October 25 in the main marquee, with a cost of $5 to enter the competition.
