By saying "what happened with the auction" I don't know if you mean did anybody win it, or what they are doing with the package in the absence of bids. If its the former, by the time I learned of it and looked at it just out of curiosity, there was only an hour or so left and there were no bids. I believe another poster said with about a minute left there were also no bids....if its the latter, I am going to presume, if they did anything, they offered the package to a donor or sponsor.

The team is flying on a B-767-3, plenty of seats. The livery is of the old Eastern Airlines. The airline is the new Eastern Airlines, not the old Eastern Airlines, It's possible that they are flying on one of the Patriots planes, as Kraft leases one of the Pats B-767-3's to Eastern.
Landing at 1:37 PM at a strange airport KSUX, which is near Sioux City Iowa.

I could not find their charter, because I was looking up Providence to Sioux Falls. I changed the search to all planes departing / enroute Providence and this plane with a destination of SUX shows up.

Providence to Sioux City, IA, I guess they have their reasons. Last year it was Worcester to Sioux Falls, SD. Shorter trip, timewise. I remember my son saying that the trip to SD was easier than the trip to Bucknell.

I remember my son saying that the trip to SD was easier than the trip to Bucknell. Perhaps someone booked the wrong Sioux ______ airport? I'd likely make that mistake I read somewhere that in 2021 they learned, after attempting to conduct their walkthrough, that SDSU's coaches' offices overlooked the stadium so they are doing it offsite this year...perhaps the walkthrough is somewhere between the airport and the hotel, thus the choice of airport?

I remember my son saying that the trip to SD was easier than the trip to Bucknell. I believe it was a weather precautionary diversion. Sioux Falls got about 9" of snow last night/early this morning.

Sioux City Iowa is also a military field. May have greater capabilities in bad weather. Anywayz, they landed at 13:40 CST.

Sorry Charlie, fool us once etc, etc.😅
