The American Mustache Institute is set to host 'Stache Bash 2008. Make no mistake, it will undoubtedly turn out to be the party of the year. 'Stache Bash 2008 will be held on October 25, at the Lumiere Casino in downtown St. Louis, Missouri. Doors open at 8:00 PM Central Time.
Video of AMI's 'Stache Bash 2008 announcement here.
The American Mustache Institute describes itself as:
"(T)he only facial hair think tank and advocacy organization in the world which has fought against a long pattern of discrimination against the Mustached American community since its secret formation in the 1960s. In the 1990s, AMI went public and began putting on events known as ‘Stache Bash in St. Louis, home of the world's largest mustache - the Gateway Arch."
The event will benefit Challenger baseball, a league for children with disabilities.
Sounds like a great time will be had by all. I'm not sure if I'll make it to St. Louis on October 25, but Drive and Dish readers who live in (or near) the "Lou" (St. Louis) should do everything within their power to get there.
And grow mustaches. Fake mustaches are recommended for female attendees (unless, of course, a female attendee sports a natural female mustache).
More:
Mustaches fell from favor sometime in the late 80's. Goatees were all the rage in the 1990's, but the decade that gave us grunge rock and the tech bubble was inhospitable to mustaches. Mustaches remained out of favor through most of the 2000's, but they've recently mounted a strong comeback -- albeit as an irony-drenched fashion statement. Sure, clean-shavenness remains a cornerstone of the young professional man's uniform. But the hipsters are starting to "rock" mustaches, much as they grew out shabby beards two years ago. And since trends filter down from the hipsters before ultimately making their way into the mainstream, I give it two or three years (max) before every young man in America is proudly wearing a mustache.

I not have mustache anymore, but I start to have thick black hair on back and hair on ass.
I try, one time, to shave hair off ass, but hand slip and I shave off all the skin on left butt cheek. Not good feeling. I not sit down for 6 weeks.
When did Hasselhoff rock that mustache? Is that a photoshop or did the Hoff really rock a stache and soul patch at some point?
Wrigleyville Illini,
The picture of David Hasselhoff with the mustache/soul patch is from Knight Rider. Hasselhoff's character, Michael Knight, had an evil look-alike nemesis named Garth Knight (also played by David Hasselhoff). Garth Knight had the mustache.
Hahaha! My Greek grandmother has a muchstache.
