What:SGA Presents AA's Date Night Auction When:Friday, February 29th at 7 PM Where:The Auditorium located in the Performing Arts Center
After a lot of pleading for the event with the dean and a fair amount of planning, it was finally time for AA's first and hopefully not the last date night auction. Dani with a mic and index cards in hand, took to the stage promptly at 7, to get things started and get everyone out before the party later that night. Once she had gotten the attention of the crowd, Dani began.
"I just want to start off by thanking you all for coming out here tonight and give a huge thanks to the boys for volunteering. Before we begin, let me just briefly explain how it will work. We have 9 fine dates up on the auction block tonight. I will call them up to the stage one by one, at which time bidding will begin. There is a cap on the bids. There is an amount by the Dean that I have been told will be the limit for the night and the first bid to match that amount or surpass it will automatically be the winning bid and then we'll move on. Once you've won the auction, you will collect your date and head over to Mr. Percy, SGA's very own faculty adviser, and hand him your generous donation. And just to remind you, all proceeds will go towards SGA, who is responsible for putting together many of AA's great dances, trips, etc. And again, the motto for the night is that it's what you got, on the spot. Meaning that we will only be accepting cash. Sorry. The dates again are all up to you and I think that's about it. Let's get things started!"
[Ok, so here's how it's gonna work. I'm gonna post 9 comments here, one for each guy. Feel free to reply and then comment back and forth with one another with your bids, like would be the case with any auction. We'll try and see how long we can keep this thread going for. If someone hits the max bid I was given by the mods, I'll jump to end that particular auction. And of course, feel free to start your own conversations and all that underneath my comments to interact with friends, etc. HAVE FUN!
Edit:this thread will continue until tomorrow night. That is when the bidding will officially be over for our purposes. So far, the closed auctions in this thread are those of Milo Romano, Daniel Jobs, Chad Lucas and Bryan Green because the limit for bids was reached. ]
