Giant 31-Inch Mustache Wins U.S. Title
-
If there's one thing capable of making the majority of men instantly jealous, it's impressive facial hair. Admit it, everyone looks better hairy.
However, even among the multitude of options out there, there's one style which reigns supreme in envy-inducing prowess: the handlebar mustache.
Just ask Larry McClure, whose awesome 31-inch tip-to-tip offering recently bagged him the U.S. title of Best Mustache.
Along with the national title and $1,000 in prize money, Larry, from San Francisco, won the right to compete at the World Beard and Mustache Championships next year, where he would take on some of the world's best whiskers.
But Larry – whose stache takes 45 minutes of grooming per day in washing, drying, coating in hair spray and then shaping -- wants to get a sponsorship deal before committing to taking part. And with an annual hairspray bill like his, we can see why.
He also knows having great facial hair is not all whisker twiddling; in the past he has trapped it in a car window and almost set fire to it while welding.

That thing looks terrible!

I can't say I'm crazy about it either. And I do love chest hair, beards, mustaches… the normal kind! Not only that, it looks like a lot of the hair is from where most of us would consider the "beard" area rather than the mustache area. Oh, I"m sure the mustache association has all kinds of criteria and rules for that..... Still 45 minutes a day? Lotta maintenance!

I wonder if he'd lose his balance if one side was cut off, like a cat losing whiskers.
Larry has no style, this guy is the champ in my book.
