This post is going to be short and sweet, mostly because I just had to write about it and let everyone know what happened.
As I said in my last blog, I had a lot going on this past weekend with a "Beard Competition" that I was in.
It was hosted at the Figure 8 Brewery in Valparaiso, IN by a local group called "The Bearded Avengers". I honestly went to the this thing thinking it was going to be lame, but it actually turned out to be really fun! I met a lot of great people and saw a ton of awesome beards (on men and women alike!).
Also...I ended up winning 1st place in the fake beard category! I was so excited! My brother also ended up winning in his category, which was Full beard. I honestly had so much fun that I decided to do another competition of the sort coming in May. Of course, with a whole new beard design!
Unfortunately, my whole costume started to fall apart before we even left the brewery (thank goodness it made it through the initial judging), so it would be out of the question to use it again. And honestly I don't feel like fixing it up. But, I'm hoping this new beard concept I have will put my old beard to shame.
Here's to a whole lot of hard work and buying supplies!
Also, some pictures from the competition.
Me and my brother after the competition. We had both just won and were smiling, but you really can't tell in this pic.
Me in front with the other two winners. I loved their beards as well.
Jeremy and his friend. They were both announced as "Best in show" and had a face off to see who the audience liked more. My brother won, which was also pretty cool!
And finally my trophy which I brought home and happily put on display. Now everyone can see that I won a beard competition.
For those who are interested, the group who hosted the show has a facebook page which you can click on in the link below. There are more pictures from the competition on there. Go and like it and support the bearded community of Northern Indiana.
Also there's a youtube video of the whole event which I have copied a link to for anyone interested in viewing that.
Anyway, that was pretty much my weekend. Went to Valparaiso, won a fake beard competition, and had a good time doing it!
I actually wanted to hit on some causes that I'm supporting at the moment, but I'll discuss that next time I'm on here.
Have an awesome week all!
