St. Louis Mayor Declares Mustache Day

 

Since Ike Turner is no longer with us -- In advance of the American Mustache Institute's charity benefit 'Stache Bash 2008 on Saturday Oct. 25 at Lumiere Casino, St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay has declared the day "Mustache Day" in the city.


WHEREAS, appreciation of a handsome mustache knows no bounds of race, creed or color; and

WHEREAS, the St. Louis-based American Mustache Institute (AMI) will hold ‘Stache Bash 2008 to celebrate the mustache and to benefit St. Louis Challenger Baseball, a local baseball league for children and adults with disabilities; and

WHEREAS, since its incorporation over a year ago, AMI has carved its niche as a tongue-in-cheek facial advocacy group and has gone national, as well as international, in a big, big way; and

WHEREAS, it is my great pleasure to welcome everyone participating in ‘Stache Bash 2008, and I thank each and every one of you for your support of this worthy cause.

Now, therefore, I, Francis G. Slay, Mayor of the City of St. Louis, do hereby proclaim October 25, 2008, as:

"MUSTACHE DAY"
IN THE CITY OF ST. LOUIS

In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused to be affixed the seal of the City of St. Louis, this 25th day of October, A.D. 2008.

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, Abraham 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 will ascend 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.
