The Kemper Arena auction is now live, and there is some good stuff

Equip-Bid Auctions, located down in the West Bottoms, occasionally finds itself tasked with unloading the inventory of interesting clients. Sex shops, for instance.

Currently, the company is auctioning off the property of its biggest West Bottoms neighbor: Kemper Arena. In February, after years of exhausting discussions and deliberations about what to do about Kemper, the City Council sold the arena to Foutch Brothers, a local developer who intends to convert it into Mosaic Arena, a two-level sports facility.

That means all the old stuff inside Kemper has to go, and Equip-Bid’s auction of the property is now live online. The last day to bid — it’s an online-only auction — is August 23.

“Here is your chance to own a piece of history with the opportunity of a lifetime to bid your price on some of the unique items that made this place special for sporting events, concerts, the circus and much more since it was built in 1974,” the advertisement for the auction reads.

Pretty much everything you would imagine to be for sale is for sale. That includes:

*The Jumbotron (top right), which Equip-Bids suggests could be reappropriated as a #mancavechandelier

*The actual Kansas City Kings hardwood court

*Seats

*Whatever you call this thing: 

*Hot dog roller

*Hot dog bun warmer

Pretzel thing:

And a whole bunch of other things. Not included: the corpse of the American Royal.
