AFL’s LA KISS unveils helmets that are football’s version of the reverse mullet (photos)

The Oregonian

-300d7fdecfc90c27The LA KISS of the AFL has unveiled their helmets and they are unlike anything we’ve seen before.

Call them football headgear’s version of the reverse mullet: Party in the front (full-frontal flames, visors and facemasks included) and business in the back (sleek chrome).

Hydro Graphics Inc. of Newberg, a company that’s made a niche for itself with the Oregon Ducks’ liquid metal helmets and branched out from there, did the work.
The KISS play in the same league as the Portland Thunder, and they meet in Los Angeles on April 5 and June 14. They play in Portland on July 12.
What do you think of the KISS’ look? Let us know in the comments.
Any bets on whether this song by KISS — the team is owned by band members Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons — figures prominently in the team’s game day productions?
