Some of the most notable and influential people in history had beards and mustaches. So, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that beards are gathering together once again to do some good in the world.
Yes, the 2019 National Beard and Mustache Championships are up for No Shave November (a.k.a. Movember) and some of the greatest beard-lovers came together to have their pictures taken for charity on November 8th and 9th.
This year, the competition is supporting three charities: Oscar Mike, a foundation supporting injured veterans, P.A.W.S of Tinley Park, a no-kill animal shelter, and Together We Cope, a homelessness prevention agency.
The winners have not yet been announced, but that does not stop us from frolicking in the glory of the beard. Greg Anderson, a Las Vegas-based photographer, took on the task of eternalizing the numerous men sporting their unique beards. Check out the top contestants in the championships below.

Hard to believe that's real. I didn't know someone could even have that much beard. Amazing.
If it's real, it took a lifetime to grow, and he doesn't look that old.
Load More Replies...Looks like there is glue on his right cheek and under his nose. Bummer if this is faked.
Not my favorite beard, but definitely my favorite rabbit!
Load More Replies...He who crosses the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he sees!
Ok, why do so many of these guys have amazing blue eyes? There's gotta be a connection....
He looks like he gives awesome hugs. No idea why that was the first thing that came to my mind
or hold snacks for later.... couple pretzels on there, some fuzzy peach rings, maybe a candy cane or two
Load More Replies...Thats literally what i said before i saw this lmao
Load More Replies...I’m almost disturbed/confused by his boyish look and then a great white and grey beard
Me too! First thing I thought was he looked like a baby with a beard, lol.
Load More Replies...Hair doesn't disapper - it just wanders downwards ;)
Load More Replies...Right! Love the curls but the comb over, not so much.
Load More Replies...Ummm, I think somebody has too much time on their hands. How many hours did that creation take?
The real question is do they sleep whiskers in or whiskers out.
Load More Replies...You’d think if it was a patterned shirt they’d be able to spell “Christmas” right, but it’s “chritmas” on his chest. You’d think if it was a real tattoo, he’d have gotten it fixed if someone screwed it up though.
Load More Replies...I break 4(for) cookies! It ruins the joke if you have to explain it.
Load More Replies...I believe his tattoo contains a spelling error. Does it really say “Merry Chritmas?”
I'm glad this one showed up twice. I find the intricacy and defiant punk statement to be wild!
I typically don't care for facial hair but I'm making an exception here. Handsome man too.
hehehehehehhehehehehehehehehe SHE HAS HER HAIR FOR A BEARD
Load More Replies..."Are there any women here?" *High pitched* "No!" *Low pitched* "No... No."
There are categories for women so they can participate, too; Women’s Realistic (that’s what this would be) & Women’s Creative (I’ve seen *amazing* beards in that category, including beards that were working steins, had entire scenes in them, etc). It’s all for fun & for charity, so the more people that participate the better!
I'm afraid all the hairspray is going to cause him to blow up with that cigarette
Reminds me of those party favors that when you blow through them they roll out and back in.
11# 12# and he are triplex twins? :D or all of them are one person? hmm...
I'm against war, the american military, and the military-industrial complex. Endless war is atrocious. War is hell.
I am a Navy Veteran. I also do not like war, and war is indeed hell. However, I and my fellow veterans are/were willing and able to stand up and protect those freedoms that we all enjoy. So I counter your downvote with an upvote. Remember it's not the soldier that declares war, it's the policy makers.
Load More Replies...I'm guessing he drives a rusty Camaro and drinks Busch Light
Load More Replies...Some terds just need to keep their mouths shut...... Maybe I spelled that wrong, or maybe not (but it sounds the same)
The libertarian belief system is awful. Have you read about it? It's purely about selfishness.
Load More Replies...I really enjoy this. It makes me realize how weird and unique we all are, and I mean that in a good way. Freedom of expression at it's best. However, I can't help but imagine other species doing this.... Like lions hosting a wildest mane contest or something
These are great, I like that the ladies are participating in this as well.
