    Re: The Ben Hudson's Beard Appreciation Society.

    Got Huddo to sign my green t-shirt at the train with the team day today.
    The curse is dead.

            Happy to share the glory around but people need to step up in a beardly fashion.
            It doesn't sound like you contacted and gave them a heads up prior to the preso though or even acknowledged their involvement?
            Well done for getting this off the ground but you weren't on your Robinson Crusoe. (now thats what I call a beard)
            Don't recall any PM's on the topic but if memory serves correct FDOTM did shout out to me personally earlier in the thread after pausing to reflect on his surprisingly vitriolic anti-Photoshop tirade.

            No backslapping required. Have been content to follow proceedings with mild interest from afar and enjoyed watching the brotherhood of the beard blossom en route to this point.

            Much as I'd like to implore FDOTM for a public rendition of 'Wind beneath my wings', it is and always has been FDOTM's baby as far as I'm concerned. More power to him and his ilk.

              Its a credit to all involved and it takes a team to keep it going with which i think all shirt buyers deserve a pat on the back, it is growing because we as a team are popping up everywhere.
              Long live the beard! (and FDOTM)

                After having the T - shirt for some months and not wearing it, I found large was too narrow in the shoulders, so I have ordered an XL with long sleeves.

                How many out there now FDOTM?

                    Be honest, when you first whacked it up on Red Bubble, how many did you expect to sell? Great effort so far.

                      Travelled to the Darwin game on the same plane as the team, got to examine the facial hair a bit closer than usual. The subject of this thread was luxuriant and in obvious good health looked even thicker than in late Feb when the chin it is attached to showed a group of us around the training facilities.
                      Other chins working towards an honourable state showed growths in keeping with the character and position of the owner, such as Jarrod Harbrow; he had a thin speed stripe on his chin, not making much of a statement just concentrating on getting the job done, Bobby Murphy has these artistically designed Mutton Chops which now appear to be going wild and have met under his chin and are totally unpredictable, but like Bobby they lacked body and looked a bit thin. Steve Tiller had the beginnings of a beard with potential to be quite full bodied or maybe it was just a few days growth. Like Tills it didn’t really know if it was in or out.

                        I have been growing a beard just these last 2 weeks (nothing as thick and awesome as huddos) and im not a fast facial hair grower haha.

                        Got my Huddo t-shirt in the mail today, bit tight round the neck and maybe a bit too big length wise (XL) but very happy with it & a wash should make it fit better..

                        Good effort firstdog

                          I'm a newbie here, but I've just gone and ordered a T-shirt too - looking forward to getting and wearing it with pride

                          All hail the beard

                            It's now gone international.

                            My sister and brother in law are over from Singapore at the moment and they were so impressed with my t-shirt my brother in law (bombers supportrer) ordered one and ordered one for my cousin living in Stirling, Scotland.
