Marlins Wives to hold annual auction

If you are going to the game, and why not, it is the only way to actually see it.  You will want to get there early since the Marlins wives are holding their annual tackle box auction.

The Florida Marlins Wives are teaming together to host the Annual Marlins Wives Tackle Box Auction on Saturday, July 4, during the Marlins-Pirates game at Land Shark Stadium, which starts at 6:05 p.m. Gates open at 4:30 p.m.

The auction, to be held at the Marlins Community Corner at Section 149, will feature tackle boxes from Marlins players with game-used equipment, autographed items and other objects unique to each player's personality. All proceeds from the auction will benefit the SOS Children's Village.

If someone can get me one of the wives cell phone numbers, FishStripes will bid.  And trust me, we will win at least one of the tackle boxes.  Come to think about it:  Is anyone going to the game?  If you are, email me, take your cell phone and some cash, and we will do it that way.  I promise you, you will be reimbursed and your name will be entered into the drawing to win it, many, many times to give you an unfair advantage.
