The player known for making defensive players wet their pants has now been forever linked to an item into which that type of behavior ordinarily occurs.
Via ESPN.com, a Silverdome urinal signed by Barry Sanders is available for auction on eBay. With 29 bids, the price of the item (cake presumably not included) has reached $2,025.
The urinal is being sold by 28-year-old Mike Kozan, who was reluctant to part with it. But you can never really own a urinal signed by Barry Sanders; you can only rent it.
“I got the memory, which is the important thing to me,” Kozan said. “I got to meet Barry and do something super-awkward. I got his autograph, and to put it on eBay is making the story even better.”
Last year, Sanders joked that he wouldn’t be signing any urinals. He since has, and given the current auction he should have asked for a peece of the profits.
