"Justache For All" Mustached Americans At G.W. Law School

The legal community in America has traditionally demonstrated great solidarity with the Mustached American community. 

Indeed,the last mustached American president of the United States was William Howard Taft -- a lawyer; the Wall Street Journal Law Blog has often covered our exploits the the Law Blog Mustache Society; Georgetown Law holds an annual mustache competition handing out  the Burt Reynolds Commemorative Plate; 69.7 percent of all incarcerated felons wear mustaches; and now, the scarf-wearing, normally bare-lipped David Kolker (pictured at right) and his peers at the George Washington University Law School will hold its "Justache For All" fundraiser benefiting the Equal Justice Foundation (EJF) which provides stipends to law students working unpaid public interest and public service jobs over the summer.

As you can see on the the event website, participants are asked to grow good looking "Justaches" (as if there was such a thing as an ugly mustache) from November 9th to December 3rd and ask friends and family to sponsor their efforts. The participant who maintains their dapper "Justache" for the entire period and has the highest sponsorship on December 3rd wins a $150 prize. Also at stake is the honor of being named "Most Amazing Best Justache,"  and everyone who grows a "Justache" will receive a "Justache For All" t-shirt.

A Gala Dinner is planned to raise funds for the competitors' lower nose accoutrements, and the group has wisely invited the American Mustache Institute, as well as numerous mustachioed and mustache-sympathizing members of Congress to attend.

It will be held Friday, November 20, in the Logan Circle area of Washington, D.C. Hair-growing cocktails will be served at 7pm, followed by dinner at 8pm.

If you are interested in attending the dinner, or for random questions about good looks, e-mail Kolker at davidkolker@gmail.com.


Carry on.

About afroman

The name “Abe Froman” is most commonly recognized as the ubiquitous and unseen character who’s identity is briefly assumed by actor Matthew Broderick in the film “Ferris Beuller’s Day Off.” However, Dr. Abraham Jonas Froman is much more. Dr. Froman, a Capricorn, began his career with AMI as an intern, and after receiving his certification in nuclear mustacheology in 2006, transitioned his role into the organization’s Director of Logistical Intelligence, focusing on research, government relations, intelligence gathering, grass roots advocacy, and song writing. On October 25, 2008, he ascended to the role of Chief Executive Officer. “I am honored to assume the chair held by Drs. Snor and Perlut previously,” Froman said. “The Mustached American people need leadership, and I pledge that AMI, under my stewardship, will continue to provide it at a time when it is so desperately needed.” Dr. Froman has said that his future goals for AMI are to create satellite campus’s overseas and to develop an annual event, to be known as "The Million Mustache March," each year in St. Louis, concluding under the world’s largest mustache – St. Louis’ Gateway Arch. Froman formerly lived in the Chicago area where he ran a museum dedicated to the "Karate Kid" series of films starring the indefatigable Pat Morita. As Abe likes to say, "One can never tire of Pat Morita." Dr. Froman is also a periodic contributor to joesportsfan.com.
