The Top Five Mustaches In Gaming History


#5 - Marshal Law- Pretty obscure huh? Marshal Law is a character from the Tekken series. He was first introduced sporting a stache’ in Tekken 4. He may be the toughest mustached man on the list.

#4 - Von Kaiser- While in the German military, Von Kaiser perfected the sweet science. After mastering the art of the uppercut, Von Kaiser was appointed as lead boxing instructor for the famous Berlin Boxing Association. He is best known for being the second opponent in Nintendo’s Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! While his whiskers have never been seen in high-def, 8 bit technology gives us just enough pixels to know that his orange push-broom is a formidable stache’.

#3 - Luigi- This paisan has played second fiddle to his brother for years. Wearing a cheesy green hat takes nothing away from the glorious cookie duster that warms Luigi’s upper lip. Something tells me we might see his aforementioned brother later in this list.

#2 - Bald Bull- Another fighter representing Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! Bald Bull appears twice in the game. Double your mustache pleasure. As you can see, this man’s lip is not follicularly challenged. His mouth lies beneath what mustache enthusiasts refer to as a “fine Turkish blend.” Being Greek, I have certain issues with Turkish politics. However, I have nothing but the utmost respect for Bald Bull’s soup strainer.

#1 - Mario- Of course our hero gets the nod. There is not a finer or more famous stache’ I could come up with. Mario sets the gold standard for video game mustaches. I think it speaks for itself.
