I have never totally fallen in love with the moustache. My mom told me that as a baby, I would frequently freak out and cry when I saw a man with a crumb duster on his lip. Now, I am of the opinion that some people can
pull it off quite well. So when a few of
my friends asked if I was heading to the 2013 Mr. Moustache competition at
DeRefter, I had to check it out.
 |
| Welcome to Mr. Moustache 2013! |
When we arrived, we were greeted with an array of lip
rugs. I was so excited to spend most of
the night finding my ‘stache personality.
 |
| At first I thought I was a Scoundrel girl, but that changed over the course of the evening. |
 |
| Chris became a Scoundrel, and I tried out the Bandit. |
 |
| One of the contestants ordered some fries before the big show. |
 |
| Our lovely bartender rocked the Casanova. |
 |
| My teacher friends searched for their facial hair personalities. |
 |
| We tried to look mysterious when rocking the red carpet. |
 |
| Eventually many of the staches became Fu Man Chus. |
 |
| Over the course of the night, I decided to create my own stache personality, the Freda. |
Around 9:40, it was time for the main event. Each of the contestants was introduced, and everyone voted for their new Mr. Moustache 2013.
 |
| The men lined up to be introduced to the crowd. |
 |
| They waited nervously to learn if they were to be Mr. Moustache 2013. |
The title was claimed by a French man
named Tebow, who actually tebowed when he was crowned king of the upper lip
hair.
 |
| Meet Tebow, Mr. Moustache 2013. |
Overall, it was a fun night, but I
don’t think I have any desire to grow lip spinach anytime soon. It's too itchy. J
