DUMPSTER DIVE DELECTABLES Becks' garbage
What happens when you send a tat-heavy, vaguely Scientologist, multi-millionaire soccer star to New Zealand? People lose their shit, of course. Case and point: Three days after Britain's David Beckham drew 30,000 fans to an L.A. Galaxy vs. Wellington Phoenix exhibition match, the pretty boy's garbage is up for auction on a popular Kiwi website.
That's right, you can be the proud owner of a partially gulped bottle of Coke with "2/8" (that would be 1/4 in most places) of the contents left, according to the seller. The fact that it's mostly backwash should only entice potential buyers with what is likely their only chance to consume Beck's DNA. At post time bids were up to a the princely sum of $170.
But if you're more of a veggie kind of guy (you know you are), the garbage digging fan is also offering up a half-eaten corn cob. Apparently the corn from Nandos, the restaurant from whence this trash came, is really tasty. So, you know, there's that too.
