Single ladies of Brooklyn, now you too can experience the thrill of buying a local politician, as Representative Michael Grimm has put himself on the block for charity, according to a report by the [Brooklyn Daily Eagle](http://www.brooklyneagle.com/articles/calling-all-single-women-here%E2%80%99s-your-chance-bid-bachelor?ref=bklyner.com).

The charity auction, which is sponsored by the Bay Ridge-based Francesco Loccisano Memorial Foundation, is holding its Second Annual Bachelor Auction on Friday, February 8, at the Dyker Golf Course catering hall, Seventh Avenue and 86th Street, at 7 p.m.

Wouldn’t it be interesting if Grimm, a noted opponent of gay marriage, gets bid on by some gay-rights activists? If they make the winning bid, perhaps they could “pin him down” on the issue once and for all. ::cough::

Also up for bidding, on the other side of the political spectrum, is [Democrat Andrew Gounardes](/local-winners-from-election-day/), who lost to Marty Golden in this past November’s State Senate election. I’m sure a little romance will go a long way to lift him out of his political blues.

If politicians aren’t your thing, you can also bid on a wide menagerie of firefighters, lawyers, teachers and cops. Those attending the event can expect your standard night of dinner, dancing, schmoozing and man-bidding.

Here are the relevant details:
