Hundreds of ruggedly handsome people gathered in downtown St. Louis on Friday for the
American Mustache Institute's third-annual 'Stache Bash and the crowning of the 2009
Robert Goulet Memorial "Mustached American of the Year."
Headlining this year's event was the inimitable John Oates of the incredibly famous pop duo Hall & Oates. After living the past two decades sans lip hair,
Oates regrew a thin -- but admirable -- handlebar mustache for his performance.
Yet as rockin' as Oates' was on stage (
concert review here), what really made the party were the people. Check 'em out below.
