Brett Keisel said goodbye to his famous facial hair last night once again, to raise money for children’s charities. The fourth annual “Shear Da Beard” event was held at Jergel’s in Warrendale for the second year in a row. The event, which was sold out, has raised over $100,000 with proceeds benefiting the oncology program at Pittsburgh Children’s Hospital.
There was a special guest auctioneer last night- James Harrison.

Several guests were on hand to have a turn shearing Keisel’s mane. Coach Tomlin, Coach LeBeau, Coach Butler and others. Here’s some highlights posted on social media.
