MARQUETTE -- The Beacon House in Marquette announced the winner of two tickets to the Green Bay Packers vs. New York Giants playoff game at Lambeau Field this weekend.

Andy Griffin had the highest bid for the two tickets donated by Steve Mariucci for a fundraiser auction.  The winning bid was $1,050, but the winner tossed in $50 extra to make it an even $1,100, according to the Beacon House.

The money raised by the auction will go toward handicap guest room improvements for the hospitality house.

Mariucci also donated tickets to a possible NFC Championship game to be held at Lambeau Field if the Packers defeat the Giants in Sunday's game.  The second pair of tickets will be put up for auction next week.

If the Packers win, they will play the NFC Championship game against either the San Francisco 49ers or the New Orleans Saints.
