Well, he shaved it because of all the money they got, someone didn't just go up to him and say "heres 500k, shave your beard."

EMT Omg that's a lot of money!


Yup, and it all went to charity, I think.


I'm pretty sure all 500k went to charity.


I think a tiny bit went to them, and a tiny bit went to the game devs, but a big majority went to charity.
