Tickets for the bucket auction and side games are sold seperately once you get in the door. You cannot come to just play the games, a dinner ticket must be purchased.<BR/><BR/>The sponsor pack gets a memorial statue, (different each year), a hat. another item of some sort (this year was a mini-multi tool)<BR/>and a number of tickets for the bucket auction.<BR/><BR/>In the bucket auction there are items laid out on a table and each item has a plastic pail with it. If want to "bid" on that item you drop one of your bucket tickets in the pail. After the live auction they drw a ticket from the pail and if it's your ticket you win that item. Each ticet pack has one or more "Bonus" tickets which go into a seperate bucket auction. Those buckets are usually blue and those prizes are usually quite nice, such as the Model 5 .22 mag we won.<BR/><BR/>I believe the tickets are 5 for $20.00. There are also &50.00 packs and $100.00 packs of tickets. Then there are other side games played all night for many different items. Those game run from $10.00 on up, depending on the prize.Soapboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13719733012433055243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7404083075239659226.post-45535422020133771932008-02-18T16:26:00.000-05:002008-02-18T16:26:00.000-05:00I absolutely LOVE the bust of the eagle.I absolutely LOVE the bust of the eagle.Bunker Britcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15049263244361215358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7404083075239659226.post-23624167229711036252008-02-18T16:24:00.000-05:002008-02-18T16:24:00.000-05:00Does the $30 (#35) pay for the dinner or just entr...Does the $30 (#35) pay for the dinner or just entry?
