There were some strange, but lovable, characters at the 2018 TOCIFT auction. Originally, the furry poker game was parked in the lobby of the Katy Gallery Furniture when TOCIFT Director Curtis Denison found them. They were marked “Not For Sale,” but Jim McIngval (Mattress Mack), upon finding out that the purchase was for a worthy cause, sent the gang packing to a new home for the remarkable cost of $850. Anyone who knows taxidermy will know that this price was very generous.
The raccoons found themselves with new names and attire during the event and were a big hit as well as selling for $7500 in the auction. Thank you Mattress Mack for letting them join the party!
