It was a tough competition but all in all, 5th place in the nation is nothing to cough at.

It was a fun, friendly competition, but it was also to encourage donations and fundraising. All of the funds raised through the competition go to the Home for Wounded Warriors, a nonprofit that builds and remodels homes that are accessible to injured veterans.

The USA Mullet Championship competition says they have raised over $100,000 for homes for disabled veterans.
