After roughly 30 Colts players shaved their heads to show their support for Colts coach Chuck Pagano, who is currently battling leukemia, now the team’s mascot and a cheerleader are getting in on the act.
Over the weekend, Blue, the Colts mascot, issued a challenge to the team’s cheerleaders via Twitter: if he could raise $10,000 for leukemia research by Nov. 25, one cheerleader would agree to have her head shaved in honor of Coach Pagano. That challenge was accepted by Megan M., a member of the Colts Cheerleaders, on Sunday.
The video of her accepting Blue’s Challenge can be viewedwww.colts.com/chuckstrong by Sunday, November 25, Megan M. will allow Blue to shave her head at the Colts versus Bills game. All money raised through this challenge will benefit leukemia research at the IU Health Simon Cancer Center in honor of Pagano.
