NFBC Message Boards

We've done a fantastic job of trying to fill up two NFBC Auction Championship Leagues in Las Vegas on Friday, March 21st and we are GOING TO DO IT!! Once we fill this league up we will have 9 full leagues and 135 teams for a 5th straight sellout!! Nice job everyone and congrats to all.

Okay, we still have some work to do. We have a full 10 am Auction Championship League in Las Vegas and 10 owners in the 4 pm PT Auction League. One owner at 4 pm really wants to move to 10 am if anyone can switch with him. Just let me know at [email protected]. But let's fill up these last 5 spots soon if possible. Thanks all.

Here's the current signup lists and I guarantee we are going to fill these two up:

If I can find a decent price ticket The Icon would love to join the auction championship. Entry is 1200?

How hard/impossible would it be to do it by phone?

Would my $75 event fee cover the cost of a proxy bidder who has me on the line for 5-6 hours? It sounds problematic but I'm open to it.

I've even done the Ultimate Auction this way 2 years in a row, but it's no fun. We hope to avoid scenarios like that.

If you end up stuck at 14 entries, I'll do it by phone if you want. I'd have to know by Mar 17, 23:59 ET. Or I could be a last minute alternate if you're full and someone drops out leaving you one short.

Good luck!

NOW ONLY 3 SPOTS LEFT in the Friday, March 21st NFBC Auction Championship at 4 pm PT. Let's keep the momentum going as we look to sell out our 9th and final league in the NFBC Auction Championship. We're excited to have the grand prize at $20,000 and even happier to sell out this event for a 5th straight season. Good job all.

Okay, but we need 3 more teams before we declare this a sellout. We have another team inquiring about this league now, so hopefully we'll take another step forward. Stay tuned all and be ready for two live auctions on Friday at the Bellagio.

Bumping up to the top looks like it might have helped...

It should fill up with live participants now. If you need me to PH by phone, you have my digits in just in case.
