Zavada is #1!!!

#1 Mustached American, that is:

I can't believe this happened all the way back on Friday and there hasn't been a press release about it from the Diamondbacks yet! Imagine my surprise when I was flipping the channels this morning after a rough night of avoiding handing out Halloween candy, when who's name do I hear as I pass by CBS's Sunday morning news program?

Your 2009 Robert Goulet Memorial Mustached American of the Year, Clay Zavada.

Congrats Clay, now lets see if we can get Drew into the top 10 for the 2010 Lynard Skynard Memorial Mullet of the Year.

Nice

Never expected him to win with all that tough competition, but he definetely deserved it! Congratz!

My dream is buried in the second page of a forum...

Oh well, I'll soon get over it... And try to fulfill it by myself...

"I am humbled that so many people in America care about mustaches and have been amazed at all of the support I’ve gotten, especially from my grandma who was really fired up about me winning."

That’s pretty awesome. Congrats to Clay!

today the stache....

next year we’re going to see if we can get Dan Haren for best “soul patch”.

I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused....

Soul patch, my ass.

They’re just wimpy, stunted excuses that couldn’t make it to true goatee status.

I'm so glad to see

that my vote didn’t go for naught.

I don't think this has ever happened before. The Redskins suck, yet the (Arizona) Cardinals and (University of Arizona) Wildcats don't.

I'm frankly surprised

The award didn’t go to Jeter or A-Rod, the amount of praise that’s been hurled at them the past couple of weeks. Nice to see some areas of human endeavor don’t suffer from quite the same East-coast bias.

Zavada rules!

I voted MANY times for Clay and had even spread the word for him on my MySpace, LiveJournal, and Facebook accounts when I first read about the award months ago on their site…so I am glad my votes went to helping him win too :)

Best soul patch? Doug Davis, hands down! Best facial hair and very well-groomed? Augie Ojeda :)

The haters

who said Kendrick’s Diamondbacks could never win anything, can go straight to hell.

Its a testimony

to all the hard work, the expert coaching, the investment in good scouting, and wise stewardship that leads to this kind accomplishment. I can’t wait for what they’ll do next year!

by NASCARbernet on Nov 2, 2009 7:59 PM EST up reply actions  

Yes

I can see why it’s so imperative that no chance to take a shot at the team’s ownership, no matter how small or contrived, escape without harm. Beware, Zavada- your mustache will not shield you from the firepower of the Killjoy Kommandos!

Given the mustache theme

It’s appropriate he won right before Mo’vember.

I posted this on Facebook.

My brother commented on it:

Peter Lacovara i’m one of 34 users in all of the youtube community to have actually watched the video that was attached to that article. And then in homage to zavada, i tied a beautiful woman to railroad tracks.
