You should auction or raffle it here. There are so many things at TFCTFN that a special item like this will just get lost in the shuffle. It will not increase the amount people spend that night. Most peole head out knowing how much they will spend before they get there. Sort of like a budget for the night.

I vote raffle. If you sold 100 tickets (which would be easy) at 5 bux a pop they would probably all go tomorrow. If auction, bidders would drop off rapidly when it gets over $150 or so.

Just my 2 cents...

I was just using a random # with the 100. 200 is very doable. Just have a set drawing date (not too far away to keep the anticipation level up) and let tickets fly.

Raffle sounds good. We'll hammer out the details this week. Again - thank you Paul - that "Spare Time" (maybe that should have been engraved) is

You are right Dave. Probably best bang for the buck. I think we should do it at both events, tomorrow and next Saturday and pick it at the too cold to fish nite so both groups will get a chance to throw away some cash. There will be quite a few people who will not attend tomorrow but will next Sat.
