2 Sabbath tickets net £22,100 for hospice

TWO tickets for Black Sabbath's final gig at Villa Park have sold for an incredible £22,100.

Acorns Children's Hospice put the two passes for the July 5 gig in Aston up for auction as part of its latest fund-raiser.

Bids on the tickets to Ozzy Osbourne's final gig reached a soaring £16,700 on Friday, March 21 with five days to go before the auction ended.

But by the time the digital hammer fell on Wednesday, March 26, a last-minute flurry of bids took the total up to £22,100.

It brings the total raised by the online Lights, Camera, Action! auction - which also included Peaky Blinders scripts, suits, UB40 memorabilia and more - to £29,687.
