Winter Classic Shave

Facebook Event Page
Greetings Good People,
A dear friend of mine and fellow Blackhawks fan was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy. While the prognosis is good, the treatment will be extensive. Even with health insurance, she will have at least $20,000 in out of pocket expenses. It is my hope that we will ultimately raise that amount. A small group of generous friends has already collected $2,500. Thus the bar has been set.
To keep the ball rolling I am putting my hair on the line. Hair that I am desperately trying to keep, having diligently treated it with Rogaine twice a day for the past 6 months. No matter, should this fundraiser reach the goal of $2,500, I will shave my head during the tailgate festivities for the Winter Classic between the Bruins and Blackhawks at Notre Dame Stadium on January 1. I'm talking full razor shave in what is almost certain to be frigid cold. I've gone Kaner mullet before, as you can see in the picture (it grew out well and the Hawks won the Cup), but never bald.
All donations will go directly to Sarah and Jeffrey Szucs. Should you all surpass the goal, I will very reluctantly add incentives for Bruins fans, my enemies, and good-natured trolls everywhere:
- $7.5k - I will add a chest waxing to the Winter Classic Shave.
- $17.5k - I will get a male Brazilian - not during the Winter Classic Shave for obvious reasons - but proven by a receipt.
So, let this be said: the gauntlet has been thrown down. No donation is too big. As a few friendly Bruins fans I know would say, let's f***in' go!
