This flyer appeared at Fine Foods:

I looked up the website listed. Here is an excerpt:

This is the home of The Follicles of the James ‘Stache & Beard League. The FotJ’SBL (note: not Klingon for “banana” as some may claim and better known as “The League”) is the local Richmond, Virginia chapter of Beard Team USA, which promotes the appreciation of facial hair nationwide.

Mark your calendars! On March 3, 2012 we’ll be hosting a charity fundraiser: the 1st Ever Mid-Atlantic Beard & ‘Stache Competition. So if you haven’t already, stop shaving and start growing!

Thankfully, no injuries.

From Times Dispatch article:

Richmond police Capt. Yvonne Crowder said the robbery occurred at the Fine Food Market in the 700 block of Idlewood Avenue when two black males, one of them brandishing a handgun, walked into the store at 9:50 p.m. and demanded money. The robbers fled on foot.

Crowder said it the store employee was unable to provide a detailed description of the robbers because both were covering their faces with bandanas.

Anyone with information can call Crime Stoppers at (804) 780-1000.
