The 36th Annual Ernest Papa Hemingway Look-Alike Contest ended in a way that can only be described as novel.

For the first time ever, the winning Papa wannabe was actually a real Hemingway.

Dave Hemingway of Macon, North Carolina, beat out 139 competitors to win the contest in Key West, Florida, on Saturday night, according to the Florida Sun Sentinel.

The 65-year-old isnt related to Ernest Hemingway and he doesnt write, but he shares other traits with the legendary artist besides his beard and last name.

I do feel like Ernest because Im in the same town that he lived in for so many years, he said, CBS Miami reported. I like to fish, I like to drink a little bit, I like women and I just like having a good fun time.
