Actually, the haircut is what happens when you gamble and lose.

Picture it: Palmetto 2006, Saturday morning. After a rough two days of competition, 1293 is 2-4. The three matches that morning included such top-billing opponents as 1676, 422, and 343. I told the team that if we won all three matches that morning, I'd (after about two years of not getting one) get a haircut.

1293 went on to post its first winning record in qualifying. Ever.

(Granted, we had some great partners over those matches, including 818, 1319, and even 343 themselves, but still, it was quite a feat to us.)
