Mickey Mantle is an absolute legend.

In 1972, New York Yankees sent a questionnaire to players asking them about their most “outstanding experience” at Yankee Stadium. Mickey Mantle gave such a sexually graphic answer that the team never printed it. Now, that same questionnaire is up for auction at Lelands.

Lelands officially began their 2022 Fall Classic Auction on Nov. 20, with the event scheduled to end on Dec. 10.

The auction features several memorabilia items, including Tom Brady and LeBron James rookie cards, Super Bowl rings and football jerseys worn by legends, but it also includes the infamous Mantle document, in which he explained an encounter that he had with a woman underneath the bleachers at Yankee Stadium.

“I got a blow job under the right field bleachers by the Yankee bull pen,” Mantle wrote. “I had a pulled groin and couldn’t fuck at the time. She was a very nice girl and asked me what to do with the cum after I c[a]me in her mouth. I said don’t ask me, I’m no cock-sucker.”

The questionnaire bidding started off at $1,000. As of press time, it’s up to $10,832.

1. Mickey Mantle is a massive legend for this, and 2. This was an iconic moment in men’s history. And by the way, who else peeped that he ended the letter with “The All-American Boy” after signing his name? (RELATED: Yasiel Puig Pleads Guilty To Federal Charges)

Love that.

Mickey Mantle will forever be a legend, both on and off the field.
