He has the mustache of a titan

On my way to work this morning I heard a story on NPR about 20-something males raising money for charity by growing mustaches. Think of it as a sort of walkathon, but instead of getting sponsored for every mile you walk, you get sponsored to endure teasing and ridicule as you grow a patchy mustache. Then, at the end, the group gets together for a best mustache contest that includes a question round, a touching round and even a beer foam retention round. The big deal is that while the 20-something demographic traditionally gives very little to charity, this seems to a huge success. I wish there was a chapter around here; I would grow a sweet handlebar. Unfortunately, I think the name needs a little work, am I the only one who thinks “Mustaches for Kids” sounds slightly pedophilic?
