NHL goons/thugs/enforcers are not usually the most interesting specimen in sports. They do most of their talking with their fists not finesse. Enter George Parros, #16 on the Anaheim Ducks. He is known for his remarkable push-broom moustache and ability to deliver haymakers yet not many people know anything else about him. Below are some amusing details about this unconventional ruffian.
- he is a Princeton graduate (he majored in economics).
- his father 'Jimbo' worked as an executive at Toys R Us.
- he donates his hair every Christmas to Locks of Love, a charitable organization.
- he drank moonshine out of the Stanley Cup.
- 'George Parros Moustaches' are on sale in the Honda Center (the Duck's home arena).
