Raffle or Auction?

[Red&Black]

i have a forest jersey signed by there entire team i want to raffle or auction for u for dc. i had thought about donating it for an auction at one of the events but i got to thinking it might be cooler to raffle it off. i know most of us have a good feeling towards dave and their fans so i thought it would be cooler if a barra-affiliated type won it in a raffle.

so would there be any interest from anyone? i'd just do it at the NE or Scum game tailgates (or both even) and see how much we could get and then raffle it off. we might even get a couple of other items or something.

raffle seems like a good idea, i bet people are interested..hell, Im interested, but I couldnt afford it..i think it would be great if a barra member picked this up though..

How about a battle royale?

I like the idea of a raffle Rob.

--Do you think you would make enough from it though? I'd like someone in the Barra to win it (ie ME :D) but at the same time I wouldnt want you to get $20 out of the deal.

[Red&Black]

i want to make the most cash for the charity--i don't know how the shirt would do in any of the "silent auctions" u for dc has at their events. i figured if we did $1 tickets we could sell a few--but maybe we'd only get $20 or so, i don't know. it is a fairly special item, i'd like to get at least $100 for it.

I tell you what Rob, I'll make it interesting. I'll throw in the Official CSC hat that was scored at the last home match. If someone could attach the pic of it that is in the Barra site I would appreaciate it.

That should beef up the total.

To add to that I have an unworn DCU hat that is autographed by Mike Petke that reads "To the Barra Brava, thanks for your support.....Mike Petke". I only ask that a cut of the overall take goes to Mike's charity.

I hate to part with either one, but I have a weak spot for doing the right thing for charity.

I would buy a couple of tickets, even at $5 a pop.
It is righteous that you're willing to part with this for charity, and sweet that it will be barra-centered.

Good idea R&B. I'm guessing that you could raise $100 in a raffle.

If a minimum you would like is $100 then stipulate that when selling the tickets. I am sure with the great 'Brothers and Sisters' at the tailgate that you would easily exceed that amount anyway :)

So to start the ball rolling stick me down for $10.00 worth of tickets mate and the 'freshly printed green and crinckly' ten buck bill will be in the next 'Red Cross Parcel' to you!

[Red&Black]

your $10 is already in the kitty big guy.

i'm in for $20. make tix $5 and sell them over next few tailgates, i'm sure we'll reach $100 in no time.

[Dave Brother]

Spread the word man!!!

I'll have the Petke cap to show for tomorrows match.


The CSC is under lock and key. ;)

[Red&Black]

Dave, do you want to do the petke hat separately so his charity can get the money and we can track it?

[Dave Brother]

any way that makes it easy is fine with me.

[Red&Black]

Ok folks, I'll have the raffle tickets at the next tailgate. i was thinking of selling tickets at the NE, US and Scum tailgates. and do the drawing b4 the scum match.

tickets will be $5 a pop. the big prize is the signed forest shirt, there is also a CSC hat and the petke hat.

money goest to u for dc and mike's charity.

[McOwen]

I think it goes without saying that whoever wins the CSC hat has to give Chico first chance at buying it :D

[Red&Black]

we did a great job at the raffle. i'll bring the tickets for the US and Scum tailgates. we'll do the drawing at about 6:30 before we dance on bob bradley's nuts. there will also be a golf goody bag and a united bag.

i am also collecting checks again on Wednesday for the banquet. if you are going get more check then. if you want to go to the banquet and haven't paid and can't make it wednesday but want to go, contact me so i can arrange it.

[Red&Black]

if anyone wants to donate something--good advertisement for your company--we'll definitely take more items.

still $5 a ticket and 5 for $20
