Whether homemade or store bought, it seems ugly holiday sweaters are being celebrated everywhere. So The Eagle asked readers to send in photos of their ugliest, tackiest – yet beloved – holiday sweaters, and we received some funny and charming entries. It was a tough decision, but Britton Lawson’s sweater bowled us over with its awesomeness. He is the winner of the $100 gift card. See more ugly sweaters at kansas.com.
