[WAY OFF TOPIC] Mr. Sasquatch 2008

Post by jaybird216 »

I'm pleased to announce that voting has begun for Mr. Sasquatch 2008!

Not that I'd ever try to influence your decision, but just cast your gaze upon this fine piece of jerky-eating skunk ape...

Please take a break from gaming and pop on over to cast your vote in the following categories:
Mr. Sasquatch - "This award goes to the hairiest, grungiest, most Neanderthal looking piece of facial hair."
The General Burnsides - "This award goes to the competitor with the best sideburns."
The Rollie Fingers - "This award goes to the competitor with the best mustache."
The Picasso - "This award goes to the contestant with the most artistic facial hair."

And last but definitely least...
The Tenderfoot - "This award goes to the contestant who probably should have waited for puberty to set in before entering the competition."

Thanks, and have a hairy day!

Hahaha. Thanks Steve,

I should point out that the contest ran from Feb 15 (shave clean) until March 31 (submit photos). So what you're seeing is a mere 6 weeks of squatchy growth for all contestants.

I would guess you are definitely in the final running, if not the winner.

Jay, I'd vote, but that picture kind of scares me. I don't know if I can take seeing anymore.

*BUMP*
Voting ends today and results will be posted tomorrow. This is your last chance to decide who will be Mr. Sasquatch!
Vote early, vote often.

Just a reminder of it how it works. Take a look at the contestants, keeping the following categories in mind. Then use the form on the voting page to write in your choices. Example: Mr. Sasquatch: Jason; The General: Joshua; etc. Just fill in the name of which participant best embodies each category:
Mr. Sasquatch - "This award goes to the hairiest, grungiest, most Neanderthal looking piece of facial hair."


The General Burnsides - "This award goes to the competitor with the best sideburns."
The Rollie Fingers - "This award goes to the competitor with the best mustache."
The Picasso - "This award goes to the contestant with the most artistic facial hair."

And last but definitely least...
The Tenderfoot - "This award goes to the contestant who probably should have waited for puberty to set in before entering the competition."

Thanks!!!

JB

Oops, maybe there throwing out my xtra votes!
Or, the fix is being put in for someone other than our Jaybird.

I doth protest.

I feel so deprived! I didn't even get onto the forums until after the contest was over. Not that you needed it, since you won, but I would have definitely voted for you, Jason!

I must say, however, that your facial expressions in the photos were quite disturbing... I must offer congratulations for that. Most of the other contestants just looked as though they were posing for mug shots at the local precinct. No style at all!

I look forward to next year's contest!

Thanks Indigo Rose!

I was disappointed that more of the contestants didn't even try to get into the sasquatch spirit! I'll post again next year, during the sign-up period. Maybe we'll get a few more crazies for the line-up!

That is one scary sasquatch! He seems to be trying to do something of great difficulty. I don't think I want to go into that bush. Might be some frightening spoor in there

Congratulations Jaybird

I just submitted my photos for this year's competition. I'll make a new posting when voting opens on April 6th. I'm hoping to see some fantastic follicle follies!
