Eduardo Rivera, Las Vegas, Nevada

Nice stache, Eduardo! Wow, you are so money, and you don't even know it. And if you are money, then that mustache is positively a fortune! Eduardo says he grew this mustache to celebrate World Cup 2010, starting it with the opening games and shaving it after the final whistle. We say that the universe weeps for losing such a stunning stache!

Joel Hassenzahl, Madison WI

Nice stache, Joel! Reportedly Joel spent some time camping and, when he returned, couldn't quite bear to shave off all of his whiskers.
