The silent auction tables are filled with lovely gift items, such as two Playhouse in the Park tickets to In the Heights (music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda). Great place to do your Christmas shopping!
Also on the silent auction tables are speciality Cincinnati Bengals collectibles such as a leather Bengals football wall hanging, #18 A.J. Green autographed game jersey, a #28 Joe Mixon autographed fan jersey and 50 yard line tickets in section 110 to the Cleveland, Denver and Oakland game
