Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rel" data-source="post: 2811006" data-attributes="member: 99">What time are you going to be there?  There is a chance that I could swing by for a few minutes to chat about this.  It wouldn't be for long though since tonight is a date night for Mrs. Rel and I after I drop Samantha off at my mom's house.As a heads up, I'm not against having the auction at Game Day.  But I see a couple of challenges that we'd need to figure out:1) Time.  This strikes me as something that could take a while.  I don't know how others feel, but I don't really want to have to skip one of the sessions to participate in the auction.  We clearly can't do it before the Game Day in the morning, lunchtime is probably not long enough (especially with how many morning games run into the lunch hour) and afterwards it cuts into dinnertime when we're already eating pretty late as it is.2) We're having a pretty good sized group coming in from out of town this time.  I'm sure these folks would enjoy participating in the auction but since the proceeds of your sales are store credit then it makes it tough on those who don't live around here.As I've typed this, a possible solution comes to mind:  We could do the auction on Friday night as part of the dinner.  I think that combining socializing and eating pizza with the event would make it fun, it could run as late as the girls wanted to keep the store open and the out of towners could spend their store credit right then and there.If it doesn't work out to get together this evening, shoot me an e-mail, BU and we'll set up a time to meet or talk on the phone.  I'd like to get this figured out sooner than later.</blockquote>
