By Ann Marie Trietley:
A brotherhood of bearded fellows and mustachioed men took over The Waiting Room last night in a hirsute and hairy pack for the 2013 Buffalo Beard and Mustache Competition. Tickets were $10 to benefit Locks of Love; Well Worn Boot opened and closed the evening. Lydia Dominick from Channel 2 made a brief appearance as a celebrity guest judge, as did Johny Chow (Fireball Ministry, Stone Sour) and Keith Nadolny (of Forgive Us Crazy Kids).
Founders of the Buffalo Beards & Beer Social Club Erik Voelkle and Matthew Quirey were spotted dishing over at the merch table; the PBR and pinot grigio was flowing all night. The following is an exclusive documentation of some of the individuals showcasing true dedication when it comes to the hair sprouting from their chins. Enjoy!
Be sure to check out the Buffalo Beards & Beer Social Club’s trivia night on Dec 2nd at 8 p.m. at Century Grill (318 Pearl St.).
