Andy Reid’s doppelganger is on U.S. Olympic curling team
Matt Hamilton’s Twitter bio notes that he is a “coffee roaster” and “mustache enthusiast.”
Oh, and he’s the “USA Curling Athlete of the Year.”
That’s noteworthy, because the Winter Olympics started Wednesday night in South Korea, and Hamilton was on the ice. The Team USA curling uniforms are red, and because Hamilton wears a cap, he bears a striking resemblance to someone familiar.

Upon further review, it seems that Hamilton also looks like Chiefs coach Andy Reid.
At least that’s what people thought while watching Hamilton and his sister, Becca Hamilton, win the first Olympic mixed doubles curling game in history on Wednesday night.
Is #Chiefs head coach Andy Reid part of the U.S. Olympic Curling Team ???? https://t.co/Qs29ye2h1t

Sad that football is over, but at least young Andy Reid is representing the U.S. at the Olympics. pic.twitter.com/GjCD1G2S3V

Every four years, Andy Reid goes on a crash diet after losing in the first round of the playoffs to concentrate on his true love, curling. A sport that doesn’t require as much offensive play calling or clock management. https://t.co/QTYwAbOnQG

The US’s decision to use time travel to bring a young version of Andy Reid to the present to compete in curling should be more heavily reported on.
