Travolta Puts "Hog" Up For Auction

(AP)  A motorcycle ridden by John Travolta will be auctioned off to help with the restoration of a landmark movie theater.

The "Wild Hogs" star, who owns a home near Ocala, attended a premiere for the movie in the city March 2. Travolta and his wife, Kelly Preston, drove down the red carpet on a custom-made Harley-Davidson motorcycle, modeled after one in the film.

Travolta autographed the bike, and it will be auctioned at a benefit dinner in May. Also on the auction block will be Travolta's signed leather jacket and a signed motorcycle helmet.

Money raised by the auction will support the Marion Theatre renovation project and the Ocala Film Commission.

"John has done so much for us, and we think the gala is going to be another great event," Marion Theatre spokeswoman Tava Sofsky said.

The Marion Theatre first opened in 1940. It closed in October for renovations, but officials hope to reopen it in July.

Plowhandle: wow you are mean. At least they are doing it the right way instead of combing foreign countries for orphans to adopt. If they have a downs syndrome child they will at least have the money to take care of him/her and they will not be uprooting foreign children from their countries. I say if you got the umph, go for it Johnny! You have beautiful children!

How nice. Another scientology cult plot to make their adherents more palatable since Tiny Tom Cruise, the dyslexic high-school dropout dwarf alienated just about everybody with his mumbo-jumbo 'wedding' to his teenage hole in Italy last November.

And did you read that this fifty-five year old has-been is going to try to knock up his 44 year old wife in an attempt to top Tiny Tom's miraculous 'impregnation' of HIS 'wife' ?? What - Travolta wants the world to have another blubbering, drooling Mongoloid ?

Pathetic Hollyweird scientologist wing nuts!
