I've always found live auctions to be fascinating. It doesn't matter what is being sold, but there's always a "buzz" in the room. Domain auctions aren't that different so the upcoming auction at NamesCon in Austin, Texas could be good fun. Of course how much "fun" it'll be is going to be dependant in part on the domains that are up for grabs on the day.
