Posted By: <b>Cat</b><p>Reminds me of the auction where the lady sold her cheese sandwich that had a vision of the Virgin Mary grilled into it. That auction ended at $17,000+. This auction should go for a lot more since it could involve cheese eaters plus the lactose intolerant.

Posted By: <b>David Smith</b><p>I at first thought the rock looked like Frankenstein (that's FrankenSTEEN) from Young Frankenstein but the more I looked at it, I think it is Uncle Fester from the Munsters.

Posted By: <b>Richard S. Simon</b><p>Cat - that cheese sandwich auction was won by an online casino, they spent $17,000 on a sandwich and got $1 million worth of publicity out of it.<br />A very clever PR move.<br /><br />--<br><br>I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.<br />Unknown author <br />--<br />We made a promise.

Posted By: <b>BruceBabcock</b><p>Sure, the Ruth rock gets all of the hype, but the Ed Abbaticchio rock is much tougher and more desirable to true collectors.

Posted By: <b>John J. Grillo</b><p>Looks more like Don Zimmer than Ruth...A Ruth lookalike Rock should sell 10K+, but the Zimmer lookalike rocks tend to sell for only 500.00 or so.
