Texas State Football Coach GJ Kinne is hosting a golf tournament, and as part of the event, he’s organizing an online auction. Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid are offering their support to a noble cause as they join forces to raise money for the Texas State Football Program. The GJ Kinne Invitational, hosted by Coach G.J. Kinne, promises to be an exciting event aimed at generating funds to support the football program.

The event, scheduled for tomorrow, features a range of valuable auction products, including memorabilia signed by Mahomes and Reid, as well as other popular figures like Dak Prescott. Additionally, attendees have the chance to bid on tickets to see country music legend George Strait perform live and even the opportunity to be a coach for the Spring Game.

Patrick Mahomes and Reid’s contribution elevates G.J. Kinne’s event

Coach G.J. Kinne recently posted on X about the event and products. He wrote, “The GJ Kinne Invitational is tomorrow! We have some incredible auction items up for grabs. They include: – NFL Helmet Signed by Patrick Mahomes & Andy Reid – NFL Helmet Signed by Dak Prescott, Micah Parsons & Mike McCarthy – George Strait Tickets – First Responder Bowl Ring – Be a Coach for the Spring Game”

The involvement of Mahomes and Reid adds significant value to the event, not only in terms of raising funds but also in inspiring and motivating aspiring football players in Texas. Their willingness to contribute to such initiatives showcases their commitment to giving back to the community and supporting the development of young athletes.

Though all items are valuable enough, some items cost even more than Patrick’s memorabilia.

George Strait tickets: Outbidding Mahomes

Among the items up for grabs are tickets to George Strait’s concert. The current bidding price for a pair of tickets is a staggering $2,000! That’s $1,000 per ticket. While it’s not exactly life-changing money, $2,000 is still a huge sum to spend on a single concert.

To die-hard George Strait fans, however, the opportunity to see him perform live may be priceless. The auction doesn’t specify where the seats are located, leaving bidders wondering if they’ll be sitting up close or farther away.

As the auction is ongoing, the price of the Strait tickets is likely to climb even higher before it closes. But for those who are determined to attend the concert, it may be worth digging deep into their pockets.

What’s surprising is that these tickets are among the most expensive items in the auction. They’re even surpassing the value of a signed Patrick Mahomes helmet! This indicates that many people are willing to splurge on a memorable concert experience.
