It's not Tony Soprano's Chevy Suburban but it has way more cache: starting today Bruce Springteen's 1991 Harley Davidson Fat Boy is up for grabs on the charityfolks.com online auction house.
The white Harley is owned by Springsteen who says it has been driven 9,198 miles across (the Badlands no doubt). The bike will be part of the live auction at the November 7 Stand Up for Heroes event, with proxy bids placed on behalf of the online auction's winner.
Along with the Harley, the high bidder will also receive a print of the picture on the site, signed by Springsteen of course. Bidding currently is at $15,000. Online bidding ends 11.7 at 6 p.m. Eastern.
Proceeds from The Stand Up For Heroes: A Benefit for the Bob Woodruff Family Fund auction go toward service members injured while serving in the United States Armed Forces. According to the charity's Web site, special emphasis is placed on soldiers with traumatic brain injury and combat stress injuries including post-traumatic stress disorder.
Conan O'Brien will host the benefit at New York's Town Hall and the evening will feature intimate performances by Lewis Black, Springsteen and Robin Williams.
