“You know competition’s tough when Abraham Lincoln comes in third place.”
The first-ever Los Angeles Beard and Mustache Championships took place at the Federal Bar in North Hollywood Sunday afternoon, and you know competition’s tough when Abraham Lincoln comes in third place.
Honest Abe — in all his stovepipe-hatted, bow-tied glory — was actually professional Lincoln presenter Robert Broski of Covina, and his third-place finish was in the partial beard category, behind Chris Noel (whose business card reads: “actor / musician / #1 freak” ) in second place, and Nathan Johnson grabbing top honors.
