Grow One, Save a Million promotion aims to beautify Augusta, save water
Tuesday, June 5, was World Environment Day. The Metro Spirit, Budweiser, 95 Rock and the Country Club Dance Hall and Saloon, however, are devoting an entire month to the planet by encouraging local men to proudly display their facial hair.
How exactly does looking like Tom Selleck help the environment, you might ask? The promotion, called Grow One, Save a Million, began when the folks at Budweiser discovered that every time a man shaves his face, he consumes five gallons of water.
So in honor of World Environment Day, the beer company asked its male employees to stop shaving for two weeks, a pledge that would save one million gallons of water nationwide.
Local Budweiser distributer AB Beverage happily jumped on the wagon, so to speak.
Not only that, they decided to get others involved, which is where the Metro Spirit, 95 Rock and the Country Club come in.
Today through June 20, the Metro Spirit will accept photos of local men showing off their mouth brows, flavor savors or whatever else they like to call them.
Then, between June 21-24, visitors to the website will be able to rank their favorites. The top vote getters will be announced on Monday, June 25.
Here’s where it gets stashe-tastic. On Thursday night, June 28, the Top 10 vote getters and anyone else who enjoys a good trash stache are invited to the Country Club for a evening of moustache judging that will end with the winner receiving a custom-made mug proclaiming them as the owner of the best
moustache in Augusta, a cooler and other swag, and… sit down… the once in a lifetime opportunity to be on the cover of the Metro Spirit. That’s right, cowboy; you will be the July 5th cover. And that, my friend, is called 15 minutes of furry fame.
To submit a picture of your stache, whether it be a Fu Manchu, Pancho Villa, handlebar, horseshoe or walrus (no Hitlers, please… okay, if you insist),
click here or visit the link at the top of the page and fill out the entry form. You must be 21 to enter.
