'Pacman' Jones wins own car at auction

Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones won his car back from a police auction on Thursday.

 

The 2004 Cadillac Roadster was seized during a cocaine bust of rapper Darryl Jerome Moore, who Jones said had used the car for a video shoot. But the car, which had "Pacman" stitched into the leather headrests, was not in the Titans cornerback's name, clearing the way for him to bid on it himself according to a report in the Nashville City Paper.

 

One problem — bidding ended in the middle of Titans practice.

 

So Jones, using the online handle "Standupguy," had someone else do the bidding for him.

 

And the bidding was fierce, with 26 others vying for his old ride.

 

The bidding, which started at $1 three weeks earlier, escalated quickly, reaching $23,100 on the opening day.

 

Jones waited until the last day of the auction, starting with a bid of $43,000 and fending off three others for seven hours.

 

The $48,500 winning bid goes back to the Drug Task Force.
