Ebay hot dog

*Raph's Girl* · 01-27-2006, 07:51 PM

In case ya haven't heard a local couple is selling on ebay a hot dog they baught at the NFC Championship game (Seahawks vs Panthers). It's currently up to $7100.00 and has 6 days left on it!

The local news is constantly doing an update on how much it's gone up.

All I can think of is how that money can go to actualy GOOD use somewhere in the world...

And, yet... we waste our money on things like this.

*The Stryker* · 01-27-2006, 09:44 PM

I don't know whats sadder...someone putting this up on ebay or the fact that I actually put a bid on it.

....yeah

*Raph's Girl* · 01-27-2006, 10:02 PM

Stryker:

How much did you bid on it?

As of now it's up to $10,069.69! All for a hot dog!

*Anarky* · 01-27-2006, 10:04 PM

I hope the hot dog gets eaten before it's sold.

Cerpin Taxt · 01-28-2006, 02:14 AM

So a stupid hot dog gets more bids than the textbooks I've been trying to sell for the past few months?

I can't wait until I'm financially able to live on the moon.

Edit: Completely out of the blue. I just realized I was warned. To look into it even more, it's for misconduct and attacking other members. Now, I was first attacked by a MOD, and then I responded, and then another mod tried to intervene but then sided with the other mod. Then I say something back and get warned. Really fair. You can all go **** off and die of aids now.

...is it just me, or is the human race de-evolving mentaly? For God's sake, it's all for a hotdog!

It would be a different story if a celebrity spat in it, but man...

*Raph's Girl* · 01-28-2006, 12:43 PM

As of right now the price of the hot dog is:

$10, 169.69

So far just one bid today but the day is still young. *L* No doubt it'll go up even further today.

*Anarky* · 01-28-2006, 01:05 PM

Why is a stupid Hot Dog so important that it needs a live newsfeed?

*Sewer Bull* · 01-28-2006, 01:24 PM

US $10,169.69 for one damn hot-dog? Bought during a football match?

This world is crazy.

I wonder how much a sausage purchased during the soccer WorldCup final in Germany would cost on Ebay?

*Masked Ninja* · 01-28-2006, 02:36 PM

It makes me think of people who pay thousand of dollars for a potato chip that looks like Elvis. Or the Pope. Maybe they would do better if they invested in a life...

*The Stryker* · 01-28-2006, 04:41 PM

Who are you to doubt the almighty seahawk hot dog?!

I put a bid for 2.50 waaaaaay back when, I tried.

**Machias Banshee** · 01-28-2006, 05:08 PM

Jeez... better be a DANG good hotdog..

Iwas thinking about this... maybe its a fundraiser thing. Like, theyre raising money for a chairity, or theyre trying to get money for an ill family member or something..?

Cuz no one in their RIGHT MIND would spend 10K on a hotdog, unless it was something important..

*The Stryker* · 01-28-2006, 05:11 PM

Imagine if it had Ketchup on it!

I probably would've bid 4!

it's either all a hoax or man do people really need to get there act together lol

I totally agree with Anarky and all the otehrs who think this is dumb.

Ebay has alot of crap on it and this is an example.

10k for a stupid hotdog? with 10k you can buy a nice tv or a car.

spend ur money on stuff you want, not foolish things like a hotdog you can buy at a grocery store..

*Raph's Girl* · 01-29-2006, 12:28 PM

Actually since 15% of the money is going to charity, 10K for a hot dog is a good deal since it's going to a good cause.

The charity they chose is the Grant Wistrom Foundation. It's a children's charity dedicated to make events and parties and trips for children inflicted with cancer. They rely soley on donations.

BTW... Grant Wistrom is one of the Seattle Seahawks so it seems rather appropriate that money from people buying a hot dog on ebay that was originally baught at a Seahawks game goes to a Seahawks children's charity.

**Machias Banshee** · 01-29-2006, 12:36 PM

I Knew it!

..only 15%? *shrug* at least its for a good cause..

*Raph's Girl* · 02-03-2006, 05:04 PM

Well the ebay thing is over. And after some fakers were taken off the hot dog ended up going for $1800.00. It was baught by Golden Palace Casino.

These people have baught every famous thing you can think of. They baught a species of monkey (now called the Golden Palace Casino Monkey), and William Shatner's gall stones. And now they've baught a hot dog.

*zkarlette* · 02-03-2006, 06:49 PM

What are they gonna do so the hot dog doesn't spoil....??

JD is right its a shame that people waste money on stuff like this when there are a lot of good charities
