Have it on a Saturday evening in the Convo, food and beverage from some of Athens finest, and auction off great Bobcat memorabilia. Entrance is limited to 350 tickets to keep the crowd from being overwhelming and gives raffle ticket holders a great chance at walking away with something. Everyone who buys a ticket also gets 6 football coupons for the upcoming football season. Worth a look. http://www.utrockets.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=18000&ATCLID=206509360&KEY=&DB_OEM_ID=18000&DB_LANG=C&IN_SUBSCRIBER_CONTENT= GO BOBCATS!

One thing that bothers me from Toledo's is that it doesn't say where the money actually goes. Scholarships? The annual fund? Capital projects? I think it might help if they specify that. Also, with so many lavish prizes and free food, I question how much money they really make.

It says in the article that any businesses that would like to donate items to the event are welcome to. GO BOBCATS!
