It is a great idea. If my memory serves me right I think it was Gary
Fujihara who was keeping us updated during the auction via FaceBook last
year. It was very interesting for those of us who could not be there in
person so the idea certainly has merit.

Cheers,

Jeff

>>Hi Michael, Greg and List,
>>
>>Great idea on the mystery box. I love it. :)
>>
>>It reminds me of the episode of Family Guy where Peter is offered his
>>choice of a free boat or the "mystery box". And Peter chooses the
>>Mystery Box while stating - "the boat is a boat, but the mystery box
>>could be anything, even a boat!"
>>
>>I bet this box has something better than tickets to Improv inside. ;)
>>
>>BTW - Michael, does the auction venue have Wi-Fi or internet access?
>>I bet many people would enjoy watching a live video feed of the
>>auction or perhaps some live snippets of the action, interviews, etc.
>>Would it be possible to set up a streaming video feed on a laptop or
>>smartphone and broadcast this feed live to the internet?
>>
>>Best regards,
>>
>>MikeG
