Michigan State's Cool Deal

If you're in the market for a used ice resurfacer with some history behind it, Michigan State can help. The university, whose men's ice hockey team won the 2007 Frozen Four, is auctioning its 1996 Olympia ice resurfacer, Model No. 2000 (ST-95) - plus plenty of extras, including seven blades and a spare tire. As the web site for the MSU Surplus Store proclaims, it's in "great condition," "fully functioning" and "ready to go." It's even got a horn, but don't ask us why.

Bidding begins at $25,000, and all bids must be received by Friday, July 30.
