ten things you didn't know about my moustache



although ive used over 2 gallons of moustache wax in the short life of my little pushbroom, ive never paid for an ounce.

The owner of the Oakland A's baseball team paid each of his players $300 to grow a stache in 1971. Not surprisingly, when the A's met the clean cut Reds in the 1972 World Series, it was dubbed the "Hair versus Square" Series by the media.

contrary to popular belief, neither my IRISH heritage nor the band gogol boredllo played role in the inspiration to grow an upper lip hairdo.

According to the Guinness Book of World Records, in July 1993, Kalyan Ramji Sain of Sundargarth, India, had a mustache that measured 133.4 inches long.

mine measures 1.6 inches

In a deck of cards the King of Hearts is the only king without a mustache.

A U.S. Marine's mustache cannot be longer than half an inch.

Fireman are not allowed to have facial hair because it prevents breathing equipment from fitting properly.

FEATCH (richie jackson) is currently in the lead in the homies moustache race at an aproximated 2.1 inches.

Melch, remeber when you used to have that blonde Krusty the clown hair and would fly around the PIT, chasing little Pat Forster? Wow, those were the days.
