Curt Dudley said on Twitter that there is also a Tom Brady signed football up for auction.

Can't make it Friday night. I am guessing to bid on the stuff you have to be there in person?

I want those cornhole boards. Got engaged right on that circle down by the tunnel at the bottom of the quad. Would be perfect to have at our wedding. TOo bad I can't make it :( and don't have the funds that are likely required to get it haha

"1992-1994 Men's Basketball Collection"

Is it possible to only take half the team?

My house is not that big.

JJ and wife will be there! That should be a good reason to attend for you all!

Anyone hear what the final amount raised was? Also wondered if the guy involved in the spirited bidding war for the week in NC is a poster here?

I believe it raised almost $50,000.

I heard "over $47,000" and "nearly $48,000" so I guess it's in between. It'd be neat to see what each item went for, they don't list that anywhere do they?

I heard $47,000 as well and then I heard a higher figure. I would go with the $47,000 number until we hear an official number.

Those are the same figures I heard. It seemed like attendance was a little less than prior years. Perhaps because of the weather.
BTW, the riblets were the best I've ever had in my life.

The comp passes were less this year.

and echo riblets - those were slammin, along with everything else.

Ah yes. The unibrow should have been a dead giveaway.
