If you thought it was amazing when Colts players shaved their heads in support of coach Chuck Pagano’s battle with leukemia earlier this season -- wait until you see what the cheerleaders did.

That's right, the Colts cheerleaders also had their heads shaved in support of their coach.

According to NBCSports.com , the team’s mascot, named Blue, shaved heads on the sideline during the game after challenging the women to do it if he was able to raise $10,000 for cancer research.

NBCSports.com reports that Pagano is in remission and is still undergoing chemotherapy.

Pagano was at the game and got a standing ovation from the crowd.
