SOLD OUT: Las Vegas 10 am AL Auction League

[Greg Ambrosius]

We quickly sold out this year's AL-only and NL-only $1300 Auction Leagues in Las Vegas this year, but there was enough demand for a second AL Auction League that we added one more at 10 am PT. How great would it be to have a second AL-only auction this year? We have a few new owners coming to Las Vegas just for this auction, so let's fill this one up.

NOW ONLY 3 SPOTS LEFT in the Friday, March 31st AL Auction League. We pay Top 3 finishers in this private league, including $7,800 for first place. We did raise the prizes in the AL and NL Auction Leagues this year, in case you didn't notice. Nice prizes this year.

Okay, who's up for this second offering of the weekend? Here's a look at the current signup list:

The Russians are back after being in exile for the past 12 years. They just missed on Francisco Rodriguez in 2004, which led to a winning season by the Desperados. They done well in the main event so I expect REDEMPTION.

Just a heads up that we also need some support for the First Weekend auctions in Las Vegas. We have a great group of owners there, but we still need more. First Weekend has been slow this year because it's Sweet Sixteen, not Opening Weekend of March Madness. That's a bummer for all of us, but thankfully that will change next year. Imagine NFBC First Weekend on Opening Weekend of March Madness again. It will be heaven in Las Vegas.

But we have to get through this year first. Again, we're looking for folks who still love Vegas in March and still love the auction leagues. We need help filling this two on Friday and Sunday mornings. Come for the Saturday Main Event as well at the Bellagio. It will be three days of fun. And maybe, just maybe, we can squeeze in an Online Championship League draft at $350 or $750. That would be fun live.

Here's a look at the First Weekend Auction Leagues in Las Vegas. Please come join us if you're in the area:
