Kobe Bryant’s face mask is now going to be auctioned and it could be yours. If you pay this amount, you better be able to wear it everywhere.
The things that get auctioned off always get me to chuckle. Kobe’s face mask is the latest item to be auctioned. How much will it cost you exactly? Think about how much a down payment on two houses will cost you or maybe more.
The Black Mamba suffered a nasal fracture on the play and had to wear a protective face mask—he donned both a black one and a clear one—for the next few weeks as a result. Now, four years later, one of the masks the Los Angeles Lakers legend wore is on the market.
On Monday, Goldin Auctions put a clear mask up for auction, with bidding open through Oct. 29. The Black Mamba reportedly wore it during four different games. According to TMZ Sports, the mask is expected to sell for more than $50,000.
That face mask better contain some of Kobe’s godly sweat if I end up buying it. However, his face mask being auctioned off reminded me of a terrific meme.
Who could ever forget this meme?
