NATASHA GORBACHEV: WORLD BEARD AND MUSTACHE CHAMPIONSHIP >>>

Beardpatandjustin I’ve always been a fan of Tacoma’s very own Justin Peterson and Pat Dawson, and when I visited them recently while they were slinging drinks at Hell’s Kitchen, they let me know that I’ll have yet another reason to cheer for them.

These two, fine, distinguished men are in the process of preparing for a competition unlike any other.

In May of 2009 they’ll make a pilgrimage to Anchorage, Alaska, for the World Beard and Mustache Championship. This is only the second time in the history of the competition that it will take place in North America.

After sneaking a peek at the previous winners in the various categories (and giggling throughout), I can guarantee that Dawson will easily become the champion for the Natural Goatee and Peterson is well on his way to take on every one of the Full Beards.

Since they’ve got some time on their hands to prepare, these guys are slowly crafting their locks and taking excellent care in doing so.

So, be sure to visit the World Beard and Mustache Championship Web site for some hearty laughter, drop into Hell’s Kitchen to view the follicle progress of Peterson and Dawson, and dish out some extra tip lovin' to send them on their way to Anchorage and inevitable goatee and beard victory.

T-Town represent.
