Sig seniors render advisor Youngblood 'stache-less

Bob Youngblood’s upper lip is naked for the first time in 45 years, and it’s all for a good cause.

On Wednesday, in keeping with his agreement with the Sigs, a group he advises, Bob agreed to allow the Sig seniors to shave his signature ‘stache as part of the group’s fund-raiser challenge. 

Here’s how it went down. The Sigs wanted to raise funds for the Suicide Prevention Hotline. So they set out two buckets to collect donations: one to shave and one not to shave.

By now, it’s obvious which bucket ended up with the most donations, and it wasn’t even close ($77 to shave, $33 not to shave). We’re guessing Bob contributed at least $30 in the not-to-shave bucket, but it wasn’t enough! 

At the conclusion of the last meeting of the school year, each Sig senior got a swipe with the razor. As Bob says, “All for a great cause.” He also wants to thank everyone who contributed to one of the buckets.

We’re not sure if he applied Miracle Grow to his upper lip, but after just two days, the missing 'stache has already started to returned with a vengeance.
