My Tournament Beard – Day 5

To do my part in helping Syracuse advance through March Madness this year I am growing a Tournament Beard. What’s a Tournament Beard? Well, it’s sort of like an NHL Playoff Beard, only probably a lot less smelly, and I won’t be shaving it until either Syracuse loses or I’m (once again) hearing One Shining Moment with tears of joy streaming down my cheeks.

I haven’t shaved since the morning of Thursday, March 18. I’d say things aren’t looking all that great:

The big problem is, like any time I’ve tried to grow a beard, things just don’t fill in properly. It’s like my facial hair has a very low resolution, a small “hairs per inch.” My beard was designed on an 8-bit Nintendo while full, proper beards are running on a Play Station 3.

Regardless, the beard continues. Championship or bust! Go Orange. Shut it down!

  1. Adam, this is the best explanation for an unfilled-in beard I have ever seen. May your 8-bit beard bring you and that orange team from up north great luck this festive season of madness.
