Cooper Flagg Bobblehead Given Away at Minor League Game Listed for $30K

Dallas Mavericks star Cooper Flagg obviously is still very popular back in his home state of Maine.

Cooper Flagg bobbleheads gained significant attention in the minor league baseball world following a promotion by the Double-A Portland Sea Dogs, honoring the NBA star Flagg. The excitement led to a listing price of $30,000 for these bobbleheads on eBay, according to MLB.com's Josh Jackson. A line reportedly formed early, around 8:30 a.m. ET, at Hadlock Field in Portland, Maine, for the 6 p.m. game.

Only the first 1,000 attendees out of a 6,000-plus capacity would receive a bobblehead. Some may view those who stand in line for hours as smart businessmen, while others might see them as losers. However, as of Friday morning, no one had purchased the $30,000 listing, with an estimated value of $29,000 at most.
