Minnesota hockey hair never disappoints

For the past 10 years, a Minnesota man has been dutifully chronicling the state’s famed high school hockey tournament, but not the play on the ice. John King’s annual “All Hockey Hair Team” YouTube videos go viral every year and a spot in the video is almost as coveted as a trophy. The videos are always full of mullets, mustaches and other styles plucked right from the ’70s, and this year is no exception. 

Here are a few of the highlights:

Unfortunately, after 10 years of carefully examining high schoolers’ hair, King says this is his final edition of the hockey flow round up. Fear not, though. The extraordinarily thorough Twitter video curator CJ Fogler is still keeping track of all of them, and ESPN published its own roundup

Again with the bats?

That’s the third time in two months that a bat has disrupted a Spurs game. The mascot in the bat costume clearly isn’t doing a good enough job keeping things under control. Maybe it’s time to hire a professional.
