Love the exhibits. Got one of the mixed exhibit cards with Ruth and the actors.
As far as the Ruth card above, I may have bid $2700 at 11 pm if I thought I could call it a night and win before turning in. Like any auction you try to gauge the interest level in the audience in making your bid. The idea that you need to be up at 5 am or through the night is insane.
Would love an economist to study this notion. I think it's highly overrated and even could be counterproductive. Can you think of anything else we sell in our society in this way?
