Diamond iX3 Umpire Protective Gear Package #4 Most Popular Auction Item

Just noticed on the UMPS Care Auction that the Diamond Umpire Gear Package was listed as the #4 most popular item by bids out of the #40 or so items listed. At #4, it's ahead (for now) of the Cal Ripken Jr autographed baseball and the Boston Red Sox VIP experience. Not bad company.

The package ended up going for its buy now price of $250.00. Our Wilson Titanium Mask also went for its maximum buy it now price. Both were among 2 of the first 6 items closed. So our items did well.

Overall, as of writing, $8,000 dollars have been raised with 5 days remaining.

Some recently added items include:
  • Lunch with a MLB Umpire before game w/ 2 MLB tickets in city of choice - Buy Now for $250
    What a great opportunity
  • Take a Ride on the Good Year Blimp - $250 initial bid
    Didn't know this was even possible. If you live close to Carson City, California where it would fly from, how could you pass this up?
  • VIP Batting Practice experiences with 4 tickets in Houston, Detroit, Florida and Minnesota
  • Dick Butkus Items: Golf with him OR Autographed football
Other good opportunities still available (e.g. 2 2009 All Star Tickets in St. Louis - $600). Consider bidding at the auction website before it ends January 20th.

Jim,

Just an FYI for you on this. The city where the Goodyear Blimp is located is the city of Carson. Not Carson City (which, if I remember correctly, is the capital of Nevada).
