Someone Bought Michael Jackson’s Dirty Sock

A sock worn by Michael Jackson during a 1997 concert in Nice was sold at auction in Nimes for 6,200 euros, exceeding the starting price of 2,500 euros. The sock, embroidered with crystals, was retrieved by a sound technician after the concert. The buyer remains anonymous, but now owns a piece of music history. This sale is just one example of the high prices that memorabilia associated with Michael Jackson can fetch at auction.
