This post is over a week late, but I've finally been able to wipe away the tears from losing the mustache contest well enough to see the computer moniter an write this post.
Ladies and gentlemen, our man Gil Garcia won the contest by a close margin! The judges, Neil, Andrei and Ryan, judged our 'staches on visibility from 10 feet, thickness, style, and improvement to face. The score was around 100 to 90. Gil won with a nicely styled 'stache and good thickness. Good job Gil, and thank you to our judges, Nan for presenting our winner, and to our coworkers who showed up to witness the judging. Gil scored a sweet Beck t-shirt and a free lunch at El Torito on Tuesday, paid for by the other contestants. Floyd showed up for lunch as well, coming over from SOE. Gil rolled deep with his crew from his baseball team to glory in the wonder of his 'stache. A good time was had by all the contestants, though the same can't be said for our significant others. I shaved my 'stache right after work and took Hannah out to dinner. Gil kept his 'stache for a victory lap so he could show up to our mustache lunch with his prize winning 'stache. Gil also sported his Beck t-shirt. Good show Gil. I think he should keep the 'stache. It looks tough.
