Hirsute hoedown set for Blue Moon

beard Start growin’ ’em, boys. The Louisiana Beard and Facial Hair Association is hosting a Beard, Mustache & Facial Hair Competition on Friday, April 19 at the Blue Moon Saloon.

Contestants can compete in the following categories: Full Beard Natural, Beard with Styled Mustache, Mustache, Free Style, Partial Beard and Ladies Facial Hair (fake beards, in other words). At the end of the competition a Crowd Favorite chosen among the winners in each category will be crowned.

The entry fee to compete is also the cover charge that night — $10, which helps pay the musical entertainment provided by Mike Dean and his band (Bret Vidrine opens the show).
