NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Warren Moon has been selected to emcee the Rock and Jock Charity Auction at the Snoqualmie Casino Ballroom Dec. 6.

Moon played for the Houston Oilers for 10 seasons, before finishing a successful NFL career with Minnesota, Seattle and Kansas City. He threw for 291 touchdowns and nearly 50,000 yards in his career, and at one time held the professional football record for most passing attempts, passing yards and passing touchdowns in a career. He was selected to the Pro Bowl nine times.

The auction, hosted by Snoqualmie Casino, FSN Northwest and Entercom Seattle, will benefit the Snoqualmie Tribal Food Bank, Special Olympics of Washington and Youthcare. There will be both silent and live auctions, which will conclude with a presentation of Oscar De La Hoya’s boxing match against Manny Pacquiao, broadcast live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

The auction is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. Some items up for bid include a Mariners Super V.I.P. package, a Seahawks Super V.I.P. package, a table for 10 to the New Year’s Eve Extravaganza at Snoqualmie Casino and guitars autographed by Jessica Simpson, Billy Ray Cyrus and Blaine Larson.
