Omaha, NE (I-Newswire) October 23, 2011 - Proxibid (www.proxibid.com), the world’s largest real auction marketplace, has been selected as the exclusive provider of online bidding for a timed auction to benefit TeamMates Mentoring Program. Bidding in this timed auction featuring vacation packages, Husker sports memorabilia and more is available until Saturday, October 29 at 8:00 p.m. Central by visiting www.proxibid.com/teammates.

The TeamMates Mentoring Program was founded in 1991 by University of Nebraska Head Football Coach Tom Osborne and his wife Nancy to encourage area youth to complete their education. What began with 22 matches in the Lincoln Public Schools has grown to more than 5,000 matches across Nebraska, Iowa and California.

This auction features 44 vacation packages, sports tickets, Husker and sports memorabilia, and more. Bidders won’t want to miss the opportunity to bid online on exclusive items including:
• Lot 2: NU-OU Helmet – Regardless of the new rivalries that will form, Nebraska/Oklahoma will always be the rivalry we think of most fondly. Built on years of excellent football and mutual respect, these two teams will always be linked together in college football history, but will likely not play against each other again until January 9, 2012 in the BCS National Championship Game! This helmet is signed by members of the 1971 Game of the Century during a celebration at the University of Oklahoma during the 2010 football season and is believed to be one of less than 10 in existence.

• Lot 6: Sand Hills Golf Club Trip – its designers have described it as “the opportunity of a golf purist's lifetime. A course that is exciting and challenging; able to withstand the test of modern equipment, yet with the unmistakable link to the past.” Ranked 8th in the United States and 11th in the world, this Ben Crenshaw/Bill Coore designed course affords a uniquely Nebraskan links opportunity. Four golfers will enjoy two days of golf and one night of lodging between the dates of June 15, 2012 and August 15, 2012.

• Lot 8: Warren Buffet Autographed Sheet of Uncut One Dollar Bills – This matted and framed sheet of uncut dollar bills is autographed by the Oracle himself, Warren Buffett. A truly unique piece that will instantly be the focus of any home or office.

• Lot 30: Two Seats from Rosenblatt Stadium – Own a piece of Omaha history. These are two seats from Johnny Rosenblatt stadium plus a Rosenblatt Commemorative Paver celebrating the Blatt’s 62 years of baseball memories.
