Buy Jay-Z’s friendship: only $20,000!

by | 3.10.11 | 4 Comments

Scooch over, Jay. And would it kill you to pick up the beer tab?

Jay Z: media impressario, Brooklyn kid done right, renter of Boerum Hill stash spots and, for about the price of a new car (with all black everything): your best sports bro. The hip hop mogul and part owner of the Nets is auctioning off a chance to sit with him court side at a Knicks game next season. It’s for charity, with proceeds going to the Stephen Gaynor School for kids with learning disabilities. The bidding started at $850 but has already hit $20,000, with 19 days left. On the same charity site, you could also win a visit to the set of Brooklyn-based Bored To Death ($950), or get your photo taken with Will Smith on the set of MIB III ($3,000). So, who’s got $19,950 we can borrow?

    [...] Love Jay-Z? Who doesn’t? But how much would you pay to be best friends with him for a night? Well, you should think about it, because he’s auctioning off a chance to chill with him courtside at two Knicks vs. Nets games, and right now the spot is sitting pretty at $31,000. Well hey, it’s for charity, but more importantly, it’s for bragging rights. Plus, we bet there are some people out there who figure if they just got the chance to tell Jay-Z their life story, they’d be fast friends no problem. And maybe they’re right. [via Brokelyn] [...]
