Have you ever wondered what it would be like to hang out with Tony LaRussa on game-day? How about to go behind the scenes on the making of a local television show? Do you ever wonder what it would be like to fly with the Rams to an away game, or to have free downtown parking for a year, or to take a private tour of the Anheuser Busch Archives, or to go on an “all you can buy” shoe shopping spree, or to drive the Zamboni at the Blues Game…or to--- STOP! This is too exciting!

 

Well dream no more my friends, because these things and more are about to become very real for a handful of lucky winners.  

 

Beginning Monday, August 10^th, the United Way of Greater St. Louis is giving you the opportunity to bid on these rare and priceless items in a 10 day online auction.

In addition to the once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, there are also pieces of signed celebrity memorabilia, concert and sporting event tickets, and private parties. There is truly something for all ages, tastes, and price ranges.
