Mayor Lets Residents Vote On If He Should Shave 18-Inch Mustache!

HUFFINGTONPOST.COM - The mayor of Murray has put all 18 inches of his handlebar mustache up for a Fourth of July vote.

Residents of the Salt Lake City suburb told Mayor Dan Snarr to either save it or shave it by giving a thumbs-up or thumbs-down sign during the annual parade Wednesday.

The mayor's wife, April, said she was tired of being poked by the facial hair and living with a "freak." She campaigned to have it removed, even carrying a giant pair of wooden scissors during the parade to convince voters.

"A nice trim would make me happy," April Snarr said. "I try to kiss him but can't find a way in. And he pokes me in the eye. I think he loses his credibility." click here to read more
