I’m finally wrapping up what happened with last Saturday’s Glorious ManPageant Mustache Competition. As you can see in this photo, I think I did a pretty good job of dressing like Mike Ditka.

Unfortunately, I didn’t win anything but an honorary medal for participating. I did raise nearly $300 for Capital Queen for a Day, which I am very proud of! It was far more than I expected, and thank you to everyone who contributed to my mustache. Your support is much appreciated. You can see photos of the event here.

See the hot woman in the middle? That is Miss District of Columbia, and she emceed the event. And as she reminded the audience throughout the event, she’s dating Washington Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell. But that meant bad news for me in my Chicago Bears clothes – she booed me for the whole time I was on stage and repeated “Go Redskins, Boo Bears!”, as well as “I’m dating Jason Campbell.”

I was doomed from the beginning – I didn’t quite have a Mike Ditka performance down, I did a poor rap to the Super Bowl Shuffle, but notwithstanding all of that, Miss DC buried me.

It was a great time though, I’m glad I raised as much money as I did, and I’ll see if I do it again next year – I already have some ideas…
