ESPN decided to set up a unique contest to determine the most convincing fake Reid.<\/p>\n<div id=\"qcmgidgb2\"><\/div>\n<p>Known for his distinctive mustache, cap, and Chiefs gear, Reid has an unmistakable look that created a fun competition for fans. The contest appeared to encourage creative interpretations of his style and personality from fans hoping to snag the top spot.<\/p>\n<p>The winner was set to be featured on \u2018Monday Night Countdown\u2019, with ESPN promising a \u201cmystery prize\u201d for the winner. After the winner was announced, Kelce gifted some of Reid\u2019s \u2018whiskers\u2019 &#8211; some of the 66-year-old\u2019s mustache hair in a bag.<\/p>\n<p>Kelce was excited by the prize, yelling down the camera that it was a \u201cone of a kind\u201d gift. He then congratulated the fan and awarded the prize, saying: \u201cI\u2019d like to present to you &#8211; you\u2019re now the official only person to own pieces of Andy Reid\u2019s whiskers.

However, his \u2018Monday Night Countdown\u2019 colleagues didn\u2019t quite agree.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, fans were somewhat confused by the prize, although they were seemingly pleased for the winner.
