What’s black, about three feet long and is constantly being tugged on?
Troy Polamalu’s hair and it officially appraised for more money than your entire house.
The Troy Polamalu mane has been insured by Proctor & Gamble’s, Head & Shoulders for $1 million. Few more details have been released but it’s safe to assume that the Pittsburgh Steelers are breathing a little easier knowing that his hair is covered.
Seriously, Polly, we know you endorse Head and Shoulders and we understand that your long hair is a tribute to your Samoan heritage, but is it really worth a million dollars? We challenge you to look us in the eyes and tell us so.
Unless you’re storing some top-secret classified info for the CIA in that mop of yours there’s no way that your locks are worth four homes in a standard American neighborhood. So what are you hiding in there? Do you know who the second shooter on the grassy knoll was? Is the Loch Ness Monster real? How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?
Have to wonder if Jake the Snake is kicking himself in the ass right now for not getting his mustache insured during his professional wrestling days. Think about it. How much would that famous Tom Selleck ‘stache be insured for? In comparison maybe $5.34 billion.
So what’s the real issue here? Is this a gimmick by the company to get thousands of websites like ours to fall victim and be stupid enough to write about it?
We’ve been duped before so why not again.
