Last night we decided to Bad-Stache bowling. Now even though this was not a good setup to meet new girls or gain respect in the eyes of Italians living here in Catania, we had a dang good time. Brandon has had a beard since he was about 9 years old, so for the first time since, he shaved off everything but his stache and a little line underneath his bottom lip. Jason had been letting his grow for a couple weeks and shaved off everything except for the mustache. Claudio and Guilio had been letting there’s grow since Tuesday yet they still seemed to have as much facial hair as me and I dunno if I’ve shaved since I’ve been in Catania. We dressed in our finest threads and went to the bowling alley. Afterwards we did the unthinkable and went downtown. Before agreeing to all this I thought we’d just go to the bowling alley for the night. Instead it was typical college night down at the Bellini. Jason, looking like a throwback version of Jeff Hostetler (QB for the New York Giants in the late 80’s and 90’s). Brandon had a White USA hat on with a polo shirt that looked 3 sizes too small, oh and the collar was definitely popped. I was wearing two different collared shirts, both collars popped, and a sweet vintage hat I borrowed from Jason with shades, at night. It was a good time and I’ll just let the pictures tell the rest of the story.
