Why isn’t legendary NASCAR driver #3, aka Dale Earnhardt on this list? Talk about one of the manliest men out there, Earnhardt epitomized manliness in more ways than one.

Captain Sir Richard Francis Burton. First translator of the Arabian Nights and the Kama Sutra, snuck into the forbidden city of Mecca disguised as a pilgrim at a time when doing so carried a death warrant, as well as discovered the lakes of sub-Saharan Africa. He spoke 29 different languages and is a founder of the field of modern anthropology. To say nothing of the thousand other little things he did. Check him out, and do his mustache justice: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton

What about Marx’s less-infamous but equally important partner, Frederick Engels? Marx’s wild barbarian beard may fit as the ideal for the man with the big ideas, but it honestly is just as matched by the perfectly-formed, colossal piece of steel wool that stuck out from the chin of his sidekick. Equally remarkable is how Engels’ mustache seems to extend down far below his mouth, which I can only imagine made eating a complicated task. Needless to say, the inspiring portrait of Engels’ taped to my wall has long outlasted my fleeting embrace of communism.

I was reading this book called “Stories of the Bullpen” or something like that that had all these interviews with relief pitchers. In Rollie’s chapter, he told the story about how he got his mustache. When he was in the minor leagues, the team’s front office was convinced they’d sell more tickets if their players had facial hair, so they offered, I think, a $50 bonus for any player who grew a moustache. Rollie said “For that kind of money, we would have grown moustaches on our asses.”
The rest is manly moustache history.

As a follow-up on Brigham Young, how about Karl Maeser, the first president of Brigham Young University? Great beard and ‘tache. His portrait at BYU was re-touched (defaced?) so he would be smooth-faced.

Jamie Hyneman definitely belongs on the list, as does Mr. T.

One could also argue for Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau – another classic stache. And I think Mr. Sam Jackson merits a mention as well, he is rarely without some form of facial hair and always rocks it like a champ.
