Oh, and Hugh raised over $60,000 during his BC/EFA auction after the show on Wednesday.
Amazing.
He auctioned off his shirt with a visit/photos/chat backstage.
The opening bid was $1,000.
A woman immediately bid $10,000.
Another man offered $15,000.
(Whatever happened to $500 increments?!)
The first woman offered $20,000.
Hugh threw in a belt, along with the shirt.
The second man agreed to the shirt that Hugh wore in the first act for $15,000.
Then, as Hugh was saying that for $2,500 he would meet people after the 'shirt bidders' were done, another man shot up his hand and said that he'd pay $25,000 for anything else Hugh was wearing...
Hugh laughed and said that he'd given up alot more for alot less in his day... *fans self*
The audience was going wild, and Hugh was just amazed. He's been incredibly successful with his auctions, but this was wild. $60,000 just for asking!
A great cause.
Go Hugh Jackman.
