'Smack Chris Rock, $5,000': Auction Memes Inspired By the WGA/SAG Auction

As the actor and writer strike progresses into the fall, the creatives are coming together to figure out ways to support their fellow union members. What better way to raise money than selling the celebrities themselves?
The charity auction organized by the Union Solidarity Collective has gathered together a diverse group of actors, showrunners, and writers to give away TV and movie memorabilia or experiences with your favorite celebrities to help fund healthcare for out-of-work crew members.
And this is where the auction gets good. Sure a signed apron from the actors on 'The Bear' is cool, but what if you could get dinner with David Cross and Bob Odenkirk? How about a watercolor portrait of your dog made by John Lithgow?
What The Union Solidarity Collective didn’t predict (or maybe they did) was how memeable their auction was. So instead of Lena Dunham painting a mural in your house for $1,000, how does a ‘7 Hour Goon Sesh with Paul Giamatti” sound?
