Recently the auction for the replica assault bomb created by CaptainR3dbeard and signed by Bungie and Rooster Teeth staff ended on Ebay. The lucky winner? Mr Loots from Pro League team Zero Logic. Loots exercised his clicking finger and outbid everyone else to the tune of $290! All of that money will go to the Extra Life Charity, run by Sarcastic Gamer on behalf of the Texas Children’s Hospital, which is located in the Texas Medial Center in Houston, Texas. Mr Loots took the time to answer a few questions regarding the auction and his motivation for bidding on it.

How did you hear about the auction?
I first noticed it in the GrifballHub forum on Rooster Teeth, which then lead me to the Grifball Gives Back article on Grifballhub.com.

Did you think you’d win?
To be honest, at first I thought I would for sure win. Then the bids hit $100 so fast, I thought I wouldn’t even have a chance!

What was your max bid?
At first, I was moving my max bid up $50 at a time. But once it hit $200, I took a breather, then moved it up to $350!

What was the driving force behind bidding on the bomb?
A little bit of everything. I love the fact that it’s a donation, it’s one of a kind, it’s signed by so many and the story behind it.

Where are you going to put the bomb?
Probably put up a shelf above my LCD so I can see it while I play Grifball…lol. It’s a good spot, my son can’t get at it there. lol

Will you send in a picture of you and the bomb for the Hub?
Definitely. I’ll probably take a bunch of pics with it. I’ll be sure to post a bunch on my Rooster Teeth profile and send some into the Hub!
