Maybe...

Actually one might well do that.

Fear not. It is always darkest before the dawn, and there is hope. You can get to Gowanus tonight for Stache Bash. Providence has smiled upon us and our venue for Stache Bash, Littlefield, is located at the Brooklyn nexus of subway lines that actually work.

super userful subway map

All subway lines lead to Stache Bash. Coincidence?

 The full version of this map is here and you can get more detailed info here. Behold! What a short walk Littlefield is from many operating Subway stations!

So grab your faithful friends and come to Stache Bash. Or Sandy will have indeed beaten us. For The Kids™

Friends, join us at the ‘Stache Bash tomorrow night to see brave volunteer Growers like Sandy Kenyon battle it out for Mustache supremacy.  It’s only a $10 entrance fee for non-Growers, and you’ll get to see bluegrass, comedian Chris Toia, and more!  Plus, an awesome mano-a-mano Mustache battle royale!

Breaking: Between now and Stache Bash you can get a match on your donations:

  • Now through  6am Sunday, the DonorsChoose.org Board of Directors will double donations up to $100!
  • The matching pot is limited to $75k, which is quite healthy.  However, the pot is shared between all the M4K chapters, so get your donors moving on it ASAP!!  Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
  • To get the match, enter the code MUSTACHE on the payment page.

Checkpoint #3 is tonight at the legendary Bushwick Country Club.  Do they have a 6-hole mini-golf course?  They do, indeed.  Will there be free ribs for Growers and friends, courtesy of proprietor/Mustachio’d man-about-town John Roberts?  Oh yes, there will be ribs.  And picklebacks.  God help us all.

Some important tips on surviving Checkpoint #3 at the B.C.C. from 2004 Mustache King Ali can be found here, but the most important is this:

Do not: drink more than three picklebacks

That’s good advice.

For some reason New York Growers seem to be trailing San Francisco in second place on the DonorsChoose leaderboard. If you have any binders full of women it might be time to ask them for a donation.

Any binders full of men would be great too. As I understand this, you can ask them for like 30% more donation for the same amount of mustache.
