CURT DAVIS INVITATIONAL MUSTACHE GROWING CONTEST OF PADDLE SPORTS - tons of prizes!

BACK TO MUSTACHEVILLE

These are emails from prospective Mustache growers, or hair farmers as we call them.

From Alex in BC, Canada 02.25.06:
Well I'm excited - I've been waiting for too long for the paddling community to wake up and embrace the awesome potential for 'new school' radical moustaches. Other than maybe Bob McDonough, no one is really working on any cool 'staches for whitewater applications, and on the sea kayaking side, sometimes it seems as if Derek Hutchinson is trying to it all alone!?!

Not to quibble, but you're actually misspelling the word "mustache", the correct CANADIAN spelling is "moustache", which brings me to my next point - I feel that anyone who is:
A) a member of the Armed Forces
B) a police officer
C) or French Canadian

should be disqualified. The reason is simple - in all of the above cases a moustache is considered 'normal' or even 'stylish' (it's even a FRENCH word for goodness sakes!). So all I'm saying is that Jeff Rivest or any of the other Riot boys might just have an unfair advantage if they chose to enter. In fact, if you don't change the rules, a French Canadian Military Police Officer is pretty much a shoe-in to win it all!

Cheers............Alex Matthews.

P.S. Can pets be entered? and how much of them would you have to shave to gain eligibility?

Alex, Thanks for your well thought out advice. We will certainly consider your counseling upon the judging process. And to answer your question with a question, are your pets paddlers? If so, the may compete but would be required to shave all the hair above the mustache up to their ears and below their mustache down to their neck. It would be extremely cruel and unusual. We do not condone that type of activity.
