Aaron Rodgers Wishes US Curler Matt Hamilton (and His Mustache) Good Luck

Hamilton, who is a Wisconsinite himself, tweeted Rodgers asking for some Olympic support

U.S. curler Matt Hamilton has a lot of celebrity twins.

Thereโ€™s Kansas City Chiefs Coach Andy Reid, for one. Also notable is his likeness to Mario, of Super Mario Brothers fame. But his favorite twin? No doubt itโ€™s Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Hamilton, who is a Wisconsinite himself, tweeted Rodgers asking for some Olympic support (throwing in a #GoPackGo), and the Packer obliged.

On what is apparently #InternetFriendsDay, Rodgers tweeted about how he is pulling for Hamilton โ€“ and his mustache. If Hamilton is able to bring a gold back to Wisconsin, just maybe weโ€™ll get a doppelganger photo.

Celebrities around the country have been posting about Team USA via social media like curling supporter Mr. T and figure skating fans Reese Witherspoon and Leslie Jones, so Rodgers is not the first โ€“ but he might be the most memorable for Hamilton.

Hamilton, 28, and his sister Becca, 27, had a disappointing performance in the inaugural mixed doubles event, but both are still fighting for some Olympic hardware in the menโ€™s and womenโ€™s events, respectively. Both teams are currently in round-robin play with semifinals beginning on Feb. 22.
