During Frantic Trading, Rick Santelli Finds Toupee On Trading Floor (VIDEO)

CNBC reporter Rick Santelli found(?) a toupee on the floor of the Chicago Board of Trade during one of the most eye-popping days of trading in history. As stock prices plummeted and volatility soared, Santelli said that people were losing not only their shirts, but also their hair.

Adding insult to injury for the owner of the apparently denuded head, Erin Burnett adds, "Wow, it has a bad part-line, too."

I've heard of losing your shirt, but losing your hair... ? Wonka wonka!

I think the next person that says Main Street and Wall Street in the same sentence should be imprisoned.

Stop talking about it and go after these thieves.

The candidate who does it first and firmest might just win the election.

It was the fitting end to a horrid day. I wonder how Rick got it back to it's owner.

I hope Rick boiled his body when he got home. He handled the Beeev with bear hands and he had no idea where that merkin had been. Erin's laugh was a little too forced - could it be that she recognized the pelt - perhaps of a close "friend". Hmmm
