Latest Update!!!

After three weeks, serious moustaches are beginning to emerge. Both contestants appear to have stuck with their styles for the time being, Jeff Bowler sporting a near-goatee reminiscent of former major-leaguer Goose Gossage, while Nate Bowler's cowboy 'stache is filling in nicely. It's neck-and-neck, folks, as these two titans engage in an epic struggle to achieve moustache dominion over Northern Ohio.

During your visit, be sure to browse our latest gallery, the NOML Moustache Hall of Shame:

Also, spend a few minutes, or hours, discussing moustaches in what may prove to be history's least popular chatroom, Moustache Chat:

The Hall of Shame!

The NOML invites you to browse our latest addition to the NOML: the NOML Moustache Hall of Shame. With its ten inaugural members, the NOML Moustache Hall of Shame is dedicated to bad moustaches and bad men with moustaches. We at the NOML felt the NOML Moustache Hall of Shame was, sadly, a necessary antithesis to the NOML Moustache Hall of Fame. Visit both by clicking the following links:

Moustache Update, 8/25/06...Moustaches Unveiled!

Well, folks, the time has come, the beards must go as moustache competitors unveil their entries to the 2006 NOML Moustache Growing Championship. Remember, contestants may trim and style their moustaches until the contest's end, but all tonics and colorants are strictly prohibited!

Please be advised that the Official Moustache Unveiling does NOT mark the end of the championship. The official end of the 2006 NOML Moustache Growing Championship will be the final week of September, to be agreed upon by participating parties.

Thank you for your continuing support of the NOML!

We have reached day 10 in the Moustache Growing Championship, and we are beginning to see the differences in the moustache attributes that these two contenders will exhibit. Nate Bowler seems to have the early lead in length and fullness, but Jeff Bowler is making a sudden charge as we should have all forseen.

Nate appears to be growing the dark, full, cowboy moustache; while Jeff Bowler brings a much lighter-colored, well-manicured look to the table. We'll see what transpires as the excitement and anticipation rises for these two gladiators, and their courageous battle to become the 1st NOML Moustache Champion continues.

Please be reminded that moustache growth judgment shall be based upon not only fullness of the moustache, but also handsomeness and sexual appeal.

PLEASE WATCH FOR THE OFFICIAL MOUSTACHE UNVEILING FRIDAY, AUGUST 25TH. All non-moustache facial hair must go!

Thank you and have a great day!

Jeff Bowler Says...

As a loyal member of The Northern Ohio Moustache League, I vow to represent all my fellow moustache aficionados out there, in a manner that represents our sacred fraternity with honor and prestige. I will indeed win the 2006 Championship and bring home the coveted title to its rightful owner, The NOML.

I want to thank the League, especially, for this unbelievable opportunity, and also all my fans, who are cheering me on as the 2006 Moustache Championship gets underway.

Thank you and may you be blessed with full and handsome moustaches.

Nate Bowler Says...

I just want to thank the NOML, and God, for this opportunity. This Championship is a dream come true for me and my family. I hope to go out there and work hard and grow the best moustache I can. I wish good luck to my opponent and may the best man win. I swear I am going to make mincemeat out of him.

Welcome!

It's day one of the N.O.M.L.'s Moustache Growing Championship '06. Photos coming soon!
