Bobak Ferdowsi in the House For State Of the Union

Impact

"Mohawk Guy" Bobak Ferdowsi will attend tonight's State of the Union speech as a guest of Michelle Obama. Ferdowsi gained national fame last year as a systems engineer with NASA during the Mars Curiosity rover mission. Were it not for his signature hairstyle, Ferdowsi liekly never would have gained national attention and thus, the invention to tonight's State of the Union address. Maybe there's something to this terrible haircut thing after all.
