But is it a sport, dammit??? : Warmup events, including the Beard Olympics in Leogang, Austria, are now under way for the 2005 World Beard and Mustache Championships in October.

Great photos. I like the guys in the freestyle mustache category.

But do they use illicit drugs to enhance their facial hair? What about alcohol, does it adversely impact performance? Call the Congress, we need hearings on this!

Don't we have any girls in the United States that can compete on this level?

I applaud anybody who can grow facial better than I can! Neat article

That has "free Prussian mustache rides" written all over it... Rollie Fingers and Salvador Dali should have known about this.

chris2sy, did you see the guy in the Dali category?

Not until just now...weird. He's got the facial expression down, too.

volfire, the women's division would probably be dominated by the Mediterranean & Eastern European countries. Of which, I hasten to add, I am a descendant. And is this a sport? Well, why the hell not.
