Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins knows how to make an entrance, and he didn’t disappoint ahead of Sunday’s AFC Championship showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs. Hollins arrived at Arrowhead Stadium dressed as Animal from the Muppets, complete with wild vibes and his signature quirk—showing up barefoot.

For those unfamiliar, Animal is the Muppets' chaotic, drum-smashing ball of energy, which perfectly mirrors Hollins' persona on the field. Hollins’ ability to bring that same unrelenting spirit to every snap has made him a standout in Buffalo this season.

Hollins has become known for his unique pregame outfits, which never fail to turn heads. Just last week, before the Bills’ 27-25 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, Hollins rolled up in a beach outfit, complete with a towel, beach hat, and—of course—bare feet. Fans immediately dubbed it “the lucky look” as the Bills punched their ticket to the AFC Championship.

Buffalo has embraced Hollins’ eccentric style with open arms, and it’s not just about the outfits. Hollins revealed in a preseason interview that he prefers to be barefoot as much as possible, whether he’s at home, at practice, or even walking into the stadium. That free-spirited energy has resonated with Bills Mafia, making him a fan favorite.

Hollins’ choice to channel Animal before such a critical game feels fitting. Like the Muppets’ drummer, Hollins thrives on controlled chaos, bringing an unpredictable and electric energy to the Bills’ offense. Fans are hoping that wild spirit translates to big plays on the field with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.

Beyond his quirky outfits, Hollins has delivered for the Bills this season, contributing clutch catches and big plays in key moments. His unique personality combined with his on-field production has cemented him as a key figure in Buffalo’s playoff run.
