MARATHON, Fla., May 15 (UPI) -- A Florida sheriff's office is selling a chicken nugget shaped like a cowboy boot to benefit its program for children.

The Monroe County Sheriff's Office said Sgt. Dennis Coleman found the boot-shaped nugget in a meal he bought Sunday from Dion's Quikmart in Marathon and decided to save it and post it on eBay to benefit the Keys Kops for Kids program, KeysNet.com reported Tuesday.

"Don't let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity pass you by," Coleman said of the auction, which started bidding at $5.
