Introducing a one-of-a-kind collector’s item: the Heisman Heroes Football, signed by 24 Heisman Trophy winners, including Michigan’s own Desmond Howard. This extraordinary piece was donated by Whitney Prince in memory of his sister and in tribute to the compassionate care she received from Arbor Hospice. Rooted in the legacy of Willard B. Prince—decorated World War I veteran and the first Chairman of the Heisman Trophy Committee—this football continues a proud family tradition of giving back. 

All proceeds support specialized veteran care at Arbor Hospice as a part of our commitment to We Honor Veterans.

This one-of-a-kind football headlines the silent auction at Barley, BBQ & Beats on September 11, 5–9 PM at Revel Run in Chelsea. Additional auction packages include a Breitling Ocean Heritage Timepiece, Fuego F24C professional grill, premier Michigan bourbon & rye basket, concert tickets to Ann Arbor’s favorite music venues, and more!

Willard B. Prince (1888–1949) was a man of vision and service. During World War I, he served with distinction as a Sergeant Major and mapmaker in the U.S. Army’s 5th Division.
