The eight-bedroom, 20,000-square-foot mansion of former National Football League (NFL) superstar and current Fort Leavenworth prison inmate, Michael Vick, is scheduled to hit the auction block for a minimum bid of $3.2 million on March 10.
Bidding is set to begin at $25,000 increments until a bid of $3.3 million is reached. Bids will then be done in $10,000 increments, according to an MSNBC.com report.
NFL Fan House has a little slideshow of the luxurious Gwinnett County residence, which is near Atlanta and where Vick plied his trade as quarterback for the Falcons until he was sentenced to serve a 23-month sentence at the federal penitentiary under terms of his plea for running a major dogfighting operation.
During that time he has struggled to repay creditors and has filed for bankruptcy. The sale of the Atlanta home, which he more than likely no longer needs since he was released from the Falcons after his arrest, and other assets will be put toward paying off debts the 28-year-old athlete has amassed.
Vick is scheduled to be released in May to serve the final two months of his sentence under home confinement at another property he owns in in Hampton, Va. He has expressed an interest in returning to the gridiron; however, he will have to receive the stamp of approval from the league commissioner before that can happen.
