Justin Turner's beard has become so popular it could earn him money.
The Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman, who is popular with fans because of his timely hitting and abnormally large ginger beard, said he wanted $10 for a reporter to touch his whiskers after Tuesday's Game 6 victory:
Truly funny/strange moment postgame as a reporter asked Justin Turner if he could touch his beard. "Sure," JT said. "$10."

The 32-year-old's price tag doesn't seem that unrealistic considering the media attention the hirsute Turner has received since signing with Los Angeles prior to the 2014 season.
During that time, Turner has established himself as one of L.A's top hitters (.303/.378/.502) while his beard grew thicker, stronger, and adorned the cover of Sports Illustrated while soaked in Gatorade earlier this season.
