2 tickets?  So does the cup get a seat, or is this auction basically a chance to pay for cup-blokes holiday with mate?

Upon arriving at the display venue, the bidder will receive a large clip of 9mm rounds delivered straight to his/her head for being enough of a sucker to pay hundreds of dollars plus all transportation/accomodation expenses to be present while a disposable cup is displayed that happened to be used by one of the ****tiest excuses for a musician of all time.

You call that funny?
Two days after Chris Reeve died, some dip**** posted a Superman cape and a wheel chair for sale on eBay. I thought it was funny, but of very bad taste...
Dark humour, i guess.

You, sir, should be hung, stabbed, drawn, quartered, and disemboweled in whatever order is the most painful.  Then if any of you're remains continue to have any semblance of having had life in them even, they will be doused with honey and left for the ants, and when the ants are done, the anthill will be scoured with nuclear fire.

While I'm not a gigantic fan, you are talking about the man who singlehandedly kindled the fires of Rock and Roll that other artisted had started.  You may not like the music, but you will give him the respect deserved to the indisputed King of Rock & Roll.

He was just a reasonably good singer.  

The elevation to god-like status is a preserve of the extremely dim-witted.  

I'd rather have a new printer, then cup used by Elvis....

I can't give what I don't have. ;)

I do, of course, recognize that this is a matter of opinion, and it is my opinion that Elvis was

It is also my opinion that the only phenomenon in the entire rock genre that consistently produced music worth listening to was Pink Floyd. Oh, there are a couple Led Zeppelin songs here and there, but as far as I'm concerned, Rock 'n Roll and all of its subsequent sub-genres can be flushed down the toilet, (perhaps the same one that The King so regally died on.) :)

Long live the Jazz Age. :D

(Personal opinion, of course.)

If I'm in the mood for something like jazz, I prefer doowap(motown in the late 40s-early 50s, think Temptations)
