I was looking through the BBQ guy's other auctions. Sells a lot of McD's collectibles.

This one brought back (frightening) memories. I remember being terrified by these commercials.

Always reminded me of a Klansman.

Seems I'm not alone. From the Youtube comments.

This motherfucker terrified me as a child...I hope he died of a painful heart attack from all that McDonalds he promoted...

Anyone else remember this creepy character?

That's mine up for sale.... So if you have any questions - feel free to send them my way

$275 was excellent for those, IMO.

Yep... it was a great deal. Event though my wife will probably kill me for buying more shoes.

Not all Brioni shoes are made by Lattanzi and the $1580 retail is way too low for Lattanzi?

He's wrong on the retail price unless he bought them many, many years ago. They are Lattanzi.

Did it sell or did he just end the auction because he was overwhelmed with offers from forumites looking to yank his chain? It states "listing ended" not "sold" so I think he just ended it or it ended without a "winner." No way someone paid $10K for barbecue sauce that is so old it is likely unusable.

I messaged him and he said it did indeed sell for that amount.

Somewhat believable. People go crazy over MJ memoribilia. CRAZY. Like "give-me-your-shoes-or-I-shoot-you-crazy."

And there are some serious collectors out there.

It even made today's Chicago Tribune: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-talk-mcjordan-bbq-sauce-1017-20121016,0,2356827.story Says the buyer is unknown.

MJ sauce only had 122 watchers. sort of underwhelming

 

[LatinStyleLover]

Okay, I stand corrected, apparently, there is someone dumb enough to buy 20-year-old barbecue sauce that will give you food poisoning if you try and eat it!

 

[bourbonbasted]

There's always someone dumb enough. Even the slightest exposure to #menswear should be all the proof you need to agree.

May well be a publicity stunt, the seller DID contact ESPN to tell them. If not, there is a good chance the buyer won't pay. I'm not usually the one to criticize, but that whole sale is dumb.
