[edit] Biographical Information
And then there’s the guy with the beard. Where's he? I do fear it. Barrack Obama, on Brian Wilson, during the Giants' visit to the White House.
Brian Wilson started to grow his beard in August 2010, and would not shave until the Giants' season was over. As the season wore on, the beard became a focal point for the Giants' fans, who would wear fake beards to games and hold up signs saying "Fear the Beard". He still sported the beard into 2011, as evidenced by the photo taken at the White House (above) in July 2011.
