20 Coolest Mustaches in Sports
Who Sports the Best Mustache?
The NHL was in a lockout during the normal month of “Movember.” Since they’re finally back into play, it’s time to recognize those players that like to sport facial hair.
Not every girl loves it, but the guys see it as a sense of accomplishment. If you can grow a successful mustache or beard then you feel a sense of accomplishment. So it’s time to honor those players that have the coolest mustaches and facial hair out there.
Athletes tend to make their mustache’s unique to give everyone a good laugh and show off their precise shaving skills. I didn’t include the best of all time, rather athletes that have been in the big leauges the last couple of years, or at least coaches that are constantly in the media.
Some of them have a full-out, hairy stache, while others make their shaving lines extremely precise and thin. Either way, these 20 guys stand out and they have mustaches that you won’t want to miss.
You’d think that hockey players would rule the world of cool mustaches considering they always take part in “No-shave November.” However, there are a wide variety of athletes that sport their beard all year round.
So who do you think deserves a top spot on the list? I did my best to include those with some pretty memorable facial hair. The majority of these guys still have their unique mustaches but a few of them may have been shaved recently. Take a look and enjoy!
Andy Reid
Andy Reid just wouldn't be the same without his mustache. Last year he decided to grow it out even longer in honor of his high school football coach that passed away.
Mike "Fluff" Cowan
Fluff is considered one of the best professional caddies on the PGA Tour. His nickname comes from his resemblance to golfer Steve Melnyk.
Derek Holland
Some people consider Holland's mustache the "worst" in sports history, but that's what makes it cool. He clearly can't grow it out so the gap in the middle just makes it even more hilarious.
Clay Zavada
Zavada isn't quite in the big league anymore but he is well-known for his mustache that resembles Rolling Fingers.
John Axford
Last year, Axford won the Robert Goulet Memorial Mustached American of the Year Award so he clearly deserves a spot on the top-20 roster.
Richard "Goose" Gossage
Joba Chamberlain
Joba's "Super Trooper" mustache was pretty memorable. However it wasn't bringing him much luck with his ERA being over 20 so he shaved it off a couple of weeks ago.
George Parros
Parros may have one of the most memorable mustaches in all of sports history. He's not exactly the friendliest looking hockey player and the stache just completes the look.
Drew Gooden
Honestly, the only reason why Gooden's looks cool is because it's so thin. He must have some precise shaving to get that thin of a mustache.
Mike Ditka
This stache was popular back when Ditka was coaching the Chicago Bears. It may be a little more gray now but it's still his signature look.
Michael Phelps
Phelps just recently joined the world of mustaches. Although it's not the best one out there yet, it looks like he is off to a good start.
Jayson Werth
It may not be the most unique mustache out there, but Werth definitely knows how to keep it looking spiffy.
Eric Wedge
Wedge has quite the unique facial hair going on. He doesn't always have the beard but sometimes has the stache going all the way down his chin.
James Harden
I think the beard is what makes the overall look; either way it looks pretty cool.
Richard Petty
There are two things that this NASCAR driver is famous for: his signature hat and his bushy mustache.
Brett Keisel
Between the mustache and the beard, Keisel has quite the crazy facial hair going on. It's long, it's full, and he even has a little bit of curl to the ends of his stache.
Rollie Fingers
Perhaps the most famous mustache of all time for MLB, Rollie Fingers has always had one of the sweetest mustaches out there. He's always known how to add the perfect curly-Q to the end of his stache.
Brian Wilson
Wilson has some crazy facial hair going on. At first glance, you would probably assume that the beard and mustache are fake, but they really are completely natural.
DeShawn Stevenson
Stevenson's isn't that "special" but he has been growing it out for such a long time that he deserves some recognition for his facial hair.
Ian McCall
