June 22, 2014 - The Third Annual Ben Roethlisberger Foundation Fundraiser1117 viewsBen and Randy Baumann had Jergels rockin' and they weren't even playing music!

Some of the items up for the Live Auction:

- Pittsburgh Steelers Game Package for four including four field passes & transportation to and from the game.

- The Ultimate Nemacolin Experience - luxury accomodations for a three-night stay with a VIP welcome amenity, breakfast for two, a round of golf for two on both The Links and Mystic Rock, couples massage, dinner for two at Aqueous and Lautrec, and 100 sporting clays for two at the Shooting Academy.

- A Kohler Experience - two-night stay at the American Club Resort Hotel with a round of golf for two on both the Blackwater River Course and Whistling Straits. The American Club is the only Forbes Five-Star resort hotel in Wisconsin and the Midwest's only AAA Five-Diamond resort hotel.

And what caused the biggest bidding war of the evening:

Dinner in your home with Ben and his personal chef!

Yes, one bidder will not only have Ben & Ashley as dinner guests at his home, but Ben will bring along his personal chef with a game plan that includes a 3-course gourmet meal. Did we mention this bidder will also be inviting 9 of his closest friends?

The high bid on this one? $16,000!
