How much would you pay for a baseball that is signed by the legendary Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian? If you answered “more than $1,000,” you still have a shot to become the proud owner of this rare collector’s item. The Minnesota Twins are currently auctioning off a ball that was signed by the soon-to-be divorced couple, with proceeds benefiting the Minnesota Twins Community Club. The item description on the Twins’ auction website reads as follows:
Fans can now bid on an official Major League baseball autographed by both reality TV star Kim Kardashian and soon-to-be former husband and Minneapolis, Minnesota native Kris Humphries.
“We have as far as we know, a one-of-a-kind item – a baseball with both of their signatures which we believe is best used to raise incremental funds for the good works of the Community Fund,” said Kevin Smith, executive director of public affairs for the Twins.
The Minnesota-native Humphries threw out the first pitch at Target Field on July 1 and his fiancee was there to cheer him on. From there we had the scripted proposal, the marriage, the divorce, and Kim K. chasing after Tim Tebow. You all know the story.
I don’t know about you, but I’m going to buy a lottery ticket this afternoon. If I hit it big, I’m hopping right on that auction website and outbidding everyone for this thing. Once in a lifetime rareness doesn’t even begin to describe how excited I am. Bidding ends on Valentine’s Day. Time to go to work.
Fist pound to Big League Stew
