Grilled Sandwich 'Holy Pan' For Sale On eBay

'Virgin Mary Pan' Up For Bids

POSTED: Monday, March 21, 2005

If you missed your chance to bid on South Florida's famous Virgin Mary grilled cheese sandwich, now you can buy the pan in which the highly publicized sandwich was fried.

Diana Duyser has listed the "Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese Sandwich Holy Pan" on eBay. As of midday Monday, there were 11 bids on the pan and the price is up to $142.50.

That's quite a bargain, considering the 10-year-old sandwich went for $28,000 to GoldenPalace.com, an online casino.

Duyser, 52, said she took the image in the sandwich seriously.

"I would like all people to know that I do believe that this is the Virgin Mary Mother of God," Duyser, a work-from-home jewelry designer, said in a statement from GoldenPalace.com.

In the new ad for the frying pan, Duyser says, "I have chosen to auction off the Holy Pan on eBay instead of the auction house 'Christy's of London' to give the world a chance to bid on it."

The ad goes on to say, "I've been to the Hard Rock in Hollywood, Florida and Las Vegas where the Virgin Mary grilled cheese sandwich was put on display for the world to see and I have witnessed people who would become dizzy, cry, and pray to her or just wanted to touch me, because she came to me 10 years ago."

In the eBay ad, Duyser asks that people e-mail her only serious questions, not "jokes or ridiculous comments."
