The guys at Beijing International Ice Hockey showed a true team effort for this year’s Maovember campaign. Not only did 30 players grew staches, but they also raised rmb4,450 through “Grow Your Mo” shirt and Maovember pins sales, rmb1,200 on the auction of a Tragically Hip painting, and rmb1,800 in personal donations, including rmb1,000 from league member James Shepheard. That added up to a winning total of rmb7,450. And some pretty cool staches. (As the BIIH website says, “It’s a way of life!”) Check them out below!
