One of the best things about the Olympics is that the world gets introduced to incredible athletes that were previously unknown to a lot of fans.

Pita Taufatofua, for example, is representing Tonga as their only Olympic athlete at these Olympic games was the talk of the Opening Ceremonies because he came out shirtless.

Another athlete that's getting a ton of attention so far is United States curler Matt Hamilton.

The 28-year-old from Wisconsin is going viral because people think he looks exactly like one of the most popular video game characters of all time, Super Mario.

Super Matt is Hamilton's nickname from here on out and based on one of his latest tweets, he loves the comparison.

If Hamilton decides to rock some blue overalls one game and do this celebration after a victory, we wouldn't be against that at all.
