BB~ Here are a few more select cuts from the WBMC of 2009 in Alaska

This guys has been growing his beard for 11 years & keeps it in this attached wire & is not allowed to compete even in the freestyle category because the wire is classified as an "unapproved aid"

Awesome pics!

I have to admit...the South Central Alaska Beard and Moustache Club is very tempting to join. Maybe I will join in eventually.

Happy "Bearding" all!

I like the idea of a seperate competition based on color. Anyone know any details about the man dressed in black in the last picture?

Beers & beards do go together don't they?

They served a lot of the hefe, which I enjoyed even though it is not my favorite style.

I also had the amber & I believe the IPA & from what I recall both were solid.

At the Glacierbrewhouse (all Beardteam USA members got a free appetizer coupon & the place was packed with beards & a few world champs) I had...

Holycity - I have to ask...How do you like our beer? Alaskan Amber is pretty big here for sure.

Excellent beard pics by the way. That gray whiskered German guy has one awesome handlebar 'stache!

Beard Board,

There are tons of pictures & videos floating around of the WBMC right now on the internet. http://www.worldbeardchampionships.com is a good place as well.

Here are a few more of my pictures, Paul:

I'm an Anchorage resident, but unfortunately due to the event being down town where the parking is terrible and the fact that it was 20 dollars a ticket, I ended up not going. It looks like it was a blast! Awesome beards! I wish I could have been there.

Happy "Bearding"

What a great time thanks for sharing, I don't know what would keep my attention more, the Alaskan sites or the beard championships.

Beard Board Members:

If you think the virtual beard community, like me, is a great thing, experiencing it in 'real time' is even better. I know not every one has the resources to make it to the World Beard & Moustache...
