PICS: Stache Dash raises funds, awareness for prostate cancer

The second annual NOLA Stache Dash & Tailgate got underway at Central City BBQ in New Orleans Sunday November 17, 2019 where men and women and even children miraculously grew mustaches. The event included a 2-mile fun run and a best mustache competition followed by tailgating for the New Orleans Saints football game televised from Tampa Bay. The winner of the best moustache was Kevin Gardebled, with 5-year-old Alex Jackson coming in second. The Pussyfooters cheered on the finishers. Proceeds benefitted prostate cancer screenings for musicians through the New Orleans Musicians’ Clinic. Photos by Matthew Hinton

The fun run and tailgate before the Saints game was held to raise money and awareness for prostate cancer at the nation’s only Musicians’ Clinic.
