TCR Donation Drive for $25 Million
I'm not sure if I should be worried about this piece of news, but supposedly soon-to-be new Cubs owner Tom Ricketts is trying to raise $100M in capital from private investors.
According to Crain’s Chicago Business, Tom Ricketts is looking for five to 10 people who could each come up with $25 million.
For that, they’d get front row seats at Wrigley Field, a chance to rub elbows with players and be on an advisory board that would meet regularly to discuss the team’s future.
After 15 years, they’d get back their original investment.
Alright, those seats would be kind of sweet and I think close to 100 people donated last time we had a donation drive. You are going to have to raise the ante though this time to about $250,000 each. You can just go ahead and paypal me the money or send a check to Nigeria.
