By Matt Snyder How much money would you spend for someone's hair? What if I told you the person in question was a Major League Baseball superstar and the proceeds were going to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation?
Well, someone would have answered that question with: Ten Thousand, two hundred dollars.
Because that just happened. Reyes' hair sold for $10,200 on eBay Wednesday afternoon.
Reyes had to cut his long hair because the Marlins have a policy in place that forbids long hair. It's probably a bit antiquated, but whatever, they are paying Reyes over $100 million for the next six seasons. The haircut was broadcast on MLB Network last Friday.
In all, it's good that five figures are going to a great cause. I just can't believe someone paid any amount of money for hair, much less five figures, but to each his own.
