Stache Bash was an unqualified success.  Many beautiful mustaches, insanely original and hysterical costumes, misguided judges, and a perfect evening combined to make the First Annual Stache Bash a very difficult event to surpass next year.  But we shall. 

The evening started at the Royals game with a camper throwing out the first pitch and a check presentation after the second inning.  Then, for no good reason, two StacheBrothers squared off in a bungee tug-of-war after the sixth inning.  Mustache Kris beat Mustache Chris for the title.  More accurately, The Commodore beat Alice in Wonderland.  When we left, the Royals were winning.  When our Staches left, so did the mojo and the mighty Royals faltered.

The final total raised was over $20,000!  Money continues to trickle in, and we will publish the final amount in a week or so.  The donation link will be severed on Monday, June 14th.   Not bad for a group shooting for $2,000, but then again, it should never surprise us when the generosity of Omaha exceeds expectations. 

Congratulations to Mustache Jay who won biggest fundraiser (over $3,500!!), and Sweetest Stache.  The judges were clearly awarding the Sweetest Stache based on the merciless pandering to WOWT as Jay was a spot-on Jim Flowers with a green screen.  Anything to distract from the hodgepodge of whiskers fighting on his lip like rabid squirrels.

Mustache David, sporting Magnum, won Most Testosterone.  Mustache Kevin, in a downright creepy-good Lt. Dangle costume (from Reno 911) won Best Costume, and Mustache “Sleepy Doc” Dave won Nastiest Stache by taking a pathetic stache (The Mustache Formerly Known as Prince”) and dying it green.  We will update the website with some pictures of the shenanigans this weekend.

 The thank yous are too voluminous and will be a separate post.
