Any
devout sports enthusiast would not let go an opportunity of owning
sporting memorabilia held by their favorite sportsman. To make the most
of this phenomenon, London 2012 organizers have announced plans to
auction off not only torches used by celebrities, but also a range of
other items used in sporting competition during the Games. Among the
plethora of memorabilia is David Beckham’s torch
which was used to light the first time in the UK. The proceeds from the
bids will be used to subsidise the cost of the torches carried by
members and other expenses for the opening ceremony of London Olympics
2012 on 27th July.
The
current bid for David Beckham’s torch stands at £5250 ($8,200) and the
winner will receive it in a beautiful presentation box, complete with
metallic shards signed by the owner. You have only 12 days to own the
legendary piece of history, so hurry!
