Online auction opens for UD football fans

4:56 p.m., Oct. 15, 2007--A golf outing with former Fightin' Blue Hens and Oakland Raiders quarterback Rich Gannon, autographed memorabilia and on-field opportunities at Tubby Raymond Field at Delaware Stadium are among items included in a new online auction to benefit the UD football program.

Blue Hen Football 2007, the online auction site, can be found at [www.udel.edu/footballauction]. Unless otherwise indicated for specific items, online bidding will continue until noon, Thursday, Oct. 25.

Fans can bid on a Cleveland Browns replica helmet autographed by Brady Quinn, a football weekend in Annapolis for the UD game against the U.S. Naval Academy and sideline credentials for upcoming home Colonial Athletic Association home games against James Madison University and the University of Richmond. And if you don't just want to watch from the sideline, bid on a chance to run out of the tunnel with the team or retrieve the kicking tee from the field.

Fans also can bid on a chance to have UD Head coach K.C. Keeler deliver lunch for 10 to their office.

Be a part of the family and join the auction action.
