12. I think Peppermint Patty awarded him the prize.

But it was a prize offered by the sponsor of a motocross race Charlie Brown entered. He bought the Charlie Brown Christmas Tree equivalent of a motorbike, and for some reason won the race by default, thinking he was going to win a pair of tickets to the Pro Bowl. The sponsor couldn't get the tickets, so he got the haircut prize instead.
