Haley Winn’s Brothers Go Viral With Bald Eagle Masks, Mullets and a Million-View Clip
Haley Winn is drawing headlines on the ice — and her three older brothers are drawing them in the stands, where coordinated patriotic outfits and a viral short video have turned them into an internet sensation while she competes at the Winter Games.
Haley Winn’s family turns heads with bold outfits and Jumbotron appearances
The Winn brothers — Tommy, Ryan and Casey — have made a point of dressing in eye-catching ensembles to cheer on Haley Winn and the U. S. women’s hockey team. Their looks have ranged from American flag tracksuits and matching bucket hats to mullet wigs and a jean-shorts-and-mullet combination that the brothers said was an intentional, out-of-the-box choice. One particularly theatrical set included a red, white and blue onesie featuring a bald eagle design paired with latex bald eagle masks; that outfit was shown on the arena Jumbotron and drew applause during a 5-0 semifinal shutout of Sweden.
The brothers have treated each game as an opportunity to try a new theme. They’ve also teased small surprises tied to match days and said they plan to dress more casually for the gold medal game slated for 1: 10 p. m. ET Thursday, Feb. 19.
Viral clip tops one million views as Haley Winn racks up points
A short clip featuring the Winn brothers’ antics has crossed the one million views threshold on a popular short-video platform, and other social reels have generated tens of thousands of likes and hundreds of comments. That online traction has amplified the brothers’ playful mission to keep attention on women’s hockey and to support their sister.
Meanwhile, Haley Winn has been delivering on the ice. She has recorded four points in her first Games with one goal and three assists, including a first Olympic goal in a group-stage win against Switzerland and an assist in the 5-0 victory over Canada. Her contributions also include an assist during a shutout of Sweden, part of the string of results that have kept the team undefeated through the tournament stages referenced in recent coverage.
Family energy fuels a broader moment for women’s hockey
The brothers say their coordinated looks started at an earlier international event and evolved into a game-by-game effort once the Olympic tournament began. They’ve mixed nostalgia-driven props — newsboy caps with newspapers, for example — with outright spectacle, and they credit collaborative brainstorming for the wardrobe choices. The brothers have acknowledged that Haley prefers surprises and that she didn’t know the outfits in advance; she’s publicly expressed gratitude that they shoulder some of the social media attention for the family.
As Haley Winn and her teammates advance toward the medal rounds, the brothers’ antics continue to resonate online and in arenas. Their combination of loud, humorous support and visible family pride has both amplified Haley Winn’s profile and added a human, fan-driven element to coverage of the tournament.
