Listen up contenders… as fate would have it, this item just crossed my path. I hereby decree that the winner of the 2008 Brash Moustache contest will have an addition prize of said t-shirt (pictured below). So start doing manly things to try and get that moustache going, because the stakes have just been raised.

Update: Alternatively, we design our own shirt to give to the winner. Only time will tell. Either way, its gonna be a bitchin’ shirt for the winner.

The event has started, get your tonics out! I am not sure of the exact number of all the contestants, but it seems that there is a good turnout. Terry has informed me that he has recruited friends of his to join in the competition, possible numbering 3-5. That I know of, the contenders are:

Chester Hardstock
Berman McBurly
Terry Nash
Rick Royce
Methuselah Jones
Dirk Manley
Bucky Jones
Rodney Holiday

I’m hoping more people join the event. You are welcome to join at any time, if anything, that gives us a head start. Good Luck to all. Send your pictures in if you got em.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!

Tonight at midnight…I will sound the horn of Moustachioed, hence the competition begins. I have installed the polls plugin and now decided to have the final winner be voted by the people, a moustache is nothing without its followers. Please take a picture as soon as possible for entry, the picture may be full-face or zoomed-in mouth area, but no full-frontal. Tell your friends and family…and get growing. Stop being so BUSH LEAGUE!

email all entry pictures to rickroyce@brashstache.com

Stay Classy Internet!

May is just around the corner and I have decided to grow a moustache all month in hopes of solidifying its position among the greats. I have asked that my friends, family, and anybody with the determination and manliness to join in the event do so. Old and young, hairy and not so hairy, I want this month to live in infamy.

Although it would have been great, as mentioned by others and realized by myself as well, to have this event as a March Madness moustache month, that did not happen…..this site has been years in the making, and it had to be perfect. Nonetheless, the May Moustache will be in effect starting Wednesday night at 12pm. All contestants will be asked to not shave (you may trim) any hair above the upper lip. Hair on the rest of the face is allowed as long as the moustache is not connected to a goatee or chinbeard hence making it a beard or goatee (what?)! There should be at least a before and after pic, and any other updates/pictures you want to post along this epic journey are acceptable. Anyone caught cheating will be disqualified.

You do not have to shave before May to start. You may use any existing growth. Moustaches will be judged on style, color, thickness, and originality. Judging criteria will also be added for contribution to the blog. Posts on the blog may only be about moustaches…..your progress, staches in the media, grooming techniques, styles, famous staches, products, news and events, etc., etc.

1st Price Winner receives : honorary “Brash Moustache” of the month! and a Darryl Hall & John Oates vinyl record.

anything less than 1st, all losers! Good luck, and Godspeed.
