You watched the puddle. Now you can own the puddle.
The #DrummondPuddleWatch on Periscope captured the hearts and minds of nearly 20,000 people on Wednesday. While the live stream has ended and lives are returning to normal, the massive puddle in Newcastle upon Tyne in the United Kingdom stirred up plenty of emotions.
Now, someone has found a way to remember the excitement that the puddle brought to all of us: by selling a small piece of the puddle to the highest bidder on eBay.
One eBay user, polkadotqueen07, gathered up 600ml (20 oz.) of the famous puddle in a regular water bottle and set the starting bid at £23 GBP (about $33 USD).
Dozens of bidders have stepped up to claim the puddle prize, raising the ante to a whopping £65,900 GBP (about $96,390 USD) at the time of writing.
There is plenty of photo proof that this water is the real deal, just in case you're feeling hesitant about throwing your hat into the ring to own some Internet history.
Naturally, people have had a lot of questions about why someone would want to sell (and, more importantly, why someone would want to buy) dirty puddle water.
Luckily, the eBay user has you covered there, too. "You cannot drink this water it's for decorative purposes only. It would look beautiful displayed in on your mantelpiece," the product description reads.
For all other inquiries, polkadotqueen07 provided a rather thorough FAQ section. Some notable quotes are below.
