HI Gordie!
Like last year, I will be offering a racer interview article in Chicagoland Motorsports News to the higest bidder.  Last year's winner was Rick Bruer, and he was quite pleased with the finished article.

Just think .... if folks hadn't outbid K3 and pushed SD to the top on this you might have been able to get even higher bids from people who would pay big bucks NOT TO SEE IT!!

A six foot puple bear in a motorcycle jacket ..... anybody we know?

Hey we've sold empty champagne bottles, I'm sure we can sell a bear. In fact one year we sold the beard off Bears face! That would be Nick Manske's brother, The Bear.  ;D ;D

Nope....

Just a silly thing that my daughter won in a ring toss game.  It's too big for her room and now it's just a living room decoration.

Now I have to convince her to let it go.

You guys are arguing about a stupid stuffed animal, and probably pay more for that thing than my signed Rossi print  ???

Starting bid is gonna be how much?  It better make some money, cause I had to go thru hell to get it. It's not a poster by the way.  It's a drawing by some artist, and Rossi signed each one.  There are only 50 of them, and it cost me $200.00 so it better get atleast that at the auction.

I think the artists name is Berry, but I gotta look when I get home. ???

Gordy-

Do you have any flyers or other paraphenalia that we can print out to a) give to our sponsors so that they can read about and better understand your organization?  Thanks in advance.

Good stuff fetches good money.

I was worth $300 (plus tips in my thong) as an umbrella stud (LOL!  
 :o)

I've bought new body pieces, rain tires, etc.  I think last year the Wegman auction brought in $14k plus.  

Anyway, if you're gonna put up something like that nice drawing...there will be people willing to bid it up.  

I'm not a man of a whole lot of $$, that's what I get for racing competitively for seventeen years, but I even find a way to drop some bling.

Wish the date was differnet this year as I do have a conflict.

I guess I'll be there in spirit...and probably pictures....LOL!

For those of you who know about the "Margarita Ball", I've asked Gordy to check and see if I can bring it along, full of margaritas no less.  (This crowd might need 2 or 3 batches) ;D

For a notoriously sober individual...I make an awful mean margarita! ;) ;D ;D ;D
Title: Re: Wegman Auction
Post by: the_weggie_man on July 22, 2004, 02:27:13 PM
The "Margarita Ball" is great. i think I drank an entire one myself one night. At least I felt like I did the next morning. :P

Flyers, etc. Yes, I have them available. Anybody that wants stuff, email an address to me and I'll get info to you.

It was actually quite embarrassing. Here's Gordy...Curled up in the corner of the party, clutching the Margarita ball and growling at anyone who got close.

When it was empty he cried.
