Answer 1

I know some guy sold a brussel sprout for cancer research, maybe that was the one. I found some stuff on wikipedia. Just go to the Ebay article and look under unusual things sold on Ebay. ;)

Answer 2

Hi

It sold for £99 and it was to raise money for a charity - good on him and whoever bought it - and for putting a smile on lots of people's faces...

Some ideas just catch people's imagination and why not!

Answer 3

I saw that on one of the late night talk shows a couple of years ago but if I remember correctly, it sold for less than that.. Like $1200 or something...

People buy and sell all sorts of weird things on eBay.. Remember that guy who sold his "life" recently?

Answer 4

For starters what the HE** would someone want  with a single cooked brussel sprout for? I mean what would one do with it? And if someone had money like that to just throw away then they should try donating it to a worthy cause. Not throw it in the trash for a brussel sprout that will eventually start to smell and go bad!

Answer 5

hmm thats strange, maybe its from a celebrity................???? idk

Answer 6

That's a joke.  No one really payed that much for a brussel sprout.  People do that kind of thing on Ebay so they can be featured on late night talk shows.

Answer 7

haha thats too funny
