The Tim Tebow Rookie Haircut Makes for One Odd Hazing Ritual

Rookie hazing in professional sports is nothing new, with traditional rituals including shaved heads and silly costumes, but the Tim Tebow haircut is odd—to say the least.

For his hazing, Denver Broncos’ rookie quarterback Tim Tebow received a more innovative welcome to NFL Football with a very interesting haircut (which kinds of makes him resemble Friar Tuck).

It’s too bad he didn’t keep this new coiffure for long though, since it might have been interesting to see how many young football fans in the Denver area would have gotten the new Tim Tebow haircut.
