What’s the most exciting thing to stream today? No, it’s not the Democratic National Convention (although we are pretty psyched to see Billy Clinton take the podium this evening). Today, the most exciting thing you can be watching is the live stream of The Four Seasons auction. Yes, really.
What is The Four Season auction you ask? Basically, it’s just a special auction for furniture and tableware from the iconic restaurant’s interior. If you have an extra $10K lying around and you’re in need of a new fork, this is your sale. But for the rest of us commoners, this is the live-action bidding drama of a lifetime. And it’s all being live streamed right now.
There’s something incredibly captivating about watching people anxiously bid on overpriced item after overpriced item. It’s like a gateway into our base human desire for ownership and competition. Does anyone really need a set of 12 wine glasses for $2,500? No, but you better bid now before your unknown online competitor pledges $2,600. The auction will be broken up into 11 different slots, each lasting an hour. Do you know what this means? We can obsessively watch all the virtual drama unfold until 8 p.m. tonight. Check out the schedule below:
People are already psyched about the live stream, praising its drama:
Discussing its fun finds:
And of course gossiping about prices.
You can follow all of these bidding wars by watching either through the Wright Auction iOS App or by going to wright20.com. We know it’s what we’ll be watching.
