O&A Auction for Katrina relief

XMRadio's morning talk hosts Opie and Anthony stated this morning that they plan to auction some signed memoribilia, with the proceeds going to Katrina relief efforts. If you are fans of O&A or Jim Norton, one would assume that you should keep an eye on their website for further details.

Update (9/2/05 13:18CT): Here's a link to the eBay auction for these items.

Update (9/9/05 14:36CT): This auction appears to be quite a success. They are doing the auction for the entire month, but in the first week they are at $24,984.93 (and steadily rising), with the first wave of auctions closing Monday. As well as the aforementioned O&A signed merchandise, they are offering items signed by Samuel L. Jackson, Dick Cavett, George Foreman, Travis Tritt, Jay Mohr, Jennifer Tilly, various WWE wrestlers, and various comedians, as well as other movie, sports, and music memoribilia. They have stated that they will be putting up baseballs signed by Cal Ripken and Rob Dibble among other items soon.

Like 'em or hate 'em, they're doing a good thing here...
