$55K for a stained shirt.  Wow.

A bit convoluted, but the high bid for the shirt worn by Doc Rivers in the final game against the Lakers was $35,000.  Two more pledges of $10,000 each including one by Gatorade and made by the Big Tuna pushed the final amount the stained and autographed shirt brought to $55k.

Additionally, Steve Pagliuca pledged another $35k if the Celts can "borrow" the shirt once and awhile.

Overall, $90,000 for a great cause.

It's for the Gatorade bucket as well.  Both items are signed by Paul and Doc.

Good for the Shamrock Foundation. 8)
