Have you ever dreamed of having lunch with Barry Alvarez? Or having beer for a year from Capital Brewing Company? What about conducting the UW Marching Band during 5th Quarter? The Wisconsin Alumni Association (WAA) will offer the chance at all of this and more during the online Big Badger Auction, Wednesday, March 25-Wednesday, April 8.

University of Wisconsin–Madison alumni and friends will begin bidding at noon CST on Wednesday, March 25, for a collection of treasures, including:

  • UW-Madison football, basketball and hockey tickets
  • An exclusive pair of red-and-white Allen Edmonds shoes
  • Deluxe golf packages and weekend getaways
  • Three months of gourmet cheese
  • A backstage tour of Camp Randall
  • Babcock Hall ice cream
  • And many more fabulous finds.

“We realize many people are watching their finances, but this is a fun way for Badgers to save money on some really unique things, while at the same time showing support for the worldwide UW community,” says WAA president and CEO Paula Bonner.

The Big Badger Auction is open to anyone seeking one-of-a-kind experiences and merchandise. Proceeds benefit WAA’s chapters, programs and mission to make meaningful connections for Badgers around the globe.
