When I first found this link a couple hours ago, this guy had less than 400,000 hits on his auction. Now it is over a million and half and climbing. Check it out while it lasts.

The current high bid is $99,999,999.00. :eek: Some one is really going to pay that for this dress? ---

I’ve never seen a big, biker-type guy like him use the words “hearty guffaw.” All-in-all, the auction looks legit. Why did some jerk jack the price up so high? He’s not going to get his mariners tickets now ☹ . ---

Anyone else notice he said he blacked-out his face so his friends and co-workers wouldn’t recognize him? The tattoos are a dead giveaway. :smack: ---

This guy has got some colloquialisms that rival Fog Horn Leg Horn. Funny stuff. ---

I’m a-gonna bid a _million dollars!_ an’ he’ll think, ‘Hey, I’m a-gonna be _rich!_’ An’ then I ain’t gonna pay! Haw haw! It jus’ _amazes_ me how funny I am!” [/Cletus the Hick] They just broadcast the ad on the Seattle news. So you can be sure there will be a bunch more brain-dead idiots playing their most original prank. :rolleyes: ---

Right now the high bid is about $15,000, from someone with good feedback. If you notice on the administrative page, there have been almost as many administrative retractions as legit bids. ---
