The short and funny clip shared by Junior sure sent us all down memory lane to the good old days. It would surely be funnier if Gordon goes back to having a mullet and a mustache now. Back in the day, when Gordon raced alongside the sports legend, Dale Earnhardt Sr, both he and ‘the intimidator’ flaunted mustaches and even looked the part in doing so.

Fans react to the mullet and mustache look of Jeff Gordon

Gordon’s old look is the polar opposite of what he looks like today. From a mustache-wielding and mullet-flaunting Gordon, our eyes have now become accustomed to the clean-shaven version of the four-time Cup Series champion. However, fans once found an old picture of him and could not hold their humor in.

Fans stated, “Honestly I wish mullets would come back in style. Business in the front party in the back. It’s really the perfect haircut.”

“Did he have a job at chick fil ay?”

“I don’t know, but I think I can see “Baby Ruth” on his shoulders.”

“And it was glorious.”

“I want to see a pic of when Jeff had a full beard for one weekend at either Richmond or Charlotte and said if he won the race he would keep it.”
