Håvard Flo's nephew Per Egil Flo also plays for Sogndal. His last match was in the second leg play-off against Aalesunds. Sogndal lost 7–2 on aggregate, but he scored the only Sogndal goal away and got applause even from the Aalesund fans.^{[citation needed]}

Flo was a large and physically strong player, who was also renowned for having a good touch, in spite of his size.^{[citation needed]}
