Coach
Chuck Pagano of the Indianapolis Colts was diagnosed with leukemia on September
26th this year. Many players have shaved their head in support. The support for
the coach and Leukemia awareness did not end there. Sunday nights victorious
20-13 win against the Buffalo Bills showed cheerleaders Megan M. and Crystal
Ann's sportsmanship. The two ladies were taken aside after the third quarter to
get their heads shaved on national television and in front of more than 60,000
live fans in Lucas Oil Stadium.
Blue,
the teams mascot, posted a twitter challenge November 11 asking for one
cheerleader to shave her head to raise $10,000 for leukemia research. Megan
immediately volunteered, and altogether $22,000 was raised for the cause. “I
just shaved my head,” Megan stated. “These people are going through the battle
for their life and they’re really the ones who deserve all the praise."
