I don't think so.
The State
Hershey
Bethlehem Steel
Prepent
PSU
CMU
The City of Philadelphia (with two /16s)
None of them seem likely to have an /8.

I think that my dirty old Blue Jew Canoe (the 1988 Olds Delta 88 that I tool
around town in) would make a good delegate.

So you seriously think that delegating /8s around to registries and potentially
starting a bidding war for 'easy' address space (which can be obtained with
money rather than demonstrated need and allocation history) is a good thing?
Good thing the community doesn't trust you to guard our scarce resources.
