    Already at $9k, great to see them supporting the cause. I'd say hey let's split this 4 ways but I'm pretty sure this will keep climbing up to crazy levels.

    Unlimited chances to the public at $10 each? They'd easily get over a million raised.

    Agreed this is out of reach for fans. Some rich dude can just grab it.  Make these raffled, thus accessible to real fans on here like us. Great cause nevertheless.

    Awesome idea but not many fans can afford to win almost going to be some corporate big shot but who cares it’s a great cause. Next time 100 bucks gets you 10 tickets and everyone has a shot. Probably make more cash.

    I think it’s funny we assume there can’t be fans as big as us (whatever that means) with lots of money.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    I totally agree. People forget that when PJ came out, their main audience was Generation X back in the early 90s. So let's say you joined the 10C back in the day when you were something like 16-22 years old, then today you'd be in your forties and if you did well in your field or made the right investments at the right time (or you came from money) then chances are you are at least a millionaire and these ticket prices or auctions are going to be well within your reach.

    Not really the point. The point is why not make it available to regular people as well and not only to  people who can write a donation check for $20k
