Pottstown Boy Advances To Finals Of National Mullet Championships

POTTSTOWN, PA — A young Montgomery County boy is gaining national attention as he competes in a unique competition: America's best mullet.

And Rory Ehrlich, 6, is doing it Philly-style.

Rory has made it to the final 25 of the children's category in the 2023 USA Mullet Championships.

"A year ago, Rory hopped into the barber's chair demanding a mullet," his bio states. "His mother, was shocked, but knew her only response was to say 'yes.' On that day, Rory's mullet was born. You can find his mullet rounding 3rd base with all that shiny 'cheddar' blowing in the wind. When his mullet is not on the field, it's out doing farm chores with his cows."

Rory's photoshoot for the competition features him wearing a Kyle Schwarber Phillies jersey. Rory proudly dons the mullet when he's playing baseball, and he's typically found wearing one type of Philadelphia sports jersey or another.

"It's not just a mullet, it's a lifestyle," his bio concludes.

Donations made on behalf of competitors have raised $113,997.31 this competition cycle, the organizations says, benefitting organizations like Wounded Warriors and more.
