A frustrated Rockies fan’s dream? Walmart heir makes Dick Monfort $4.65 billion offer he can’t refuse. by markkiszla
: Well, look on the bright side. We all might have a new Broncos stadium with a retractable roof to enjoy before Colorado kids who have never seen Nikola Jokic play on Altitude reach legal drinking age. Once upon a time, Mr. Kroenke did explore buying the Rockies. Dick and Charlie Monfort weren’t interested. Hmm, makes me wonder. Think if an heir to the Walmart fortune offered $4.
If the Waltons work with Kroenke, they could lead a downtown revitalization that will shape Denver for the foreseeable future. Challenges require a positive will to meet, not divisive negatives.: I travel a lot. My experience is the pandemic took toll on the vibrancy of many cities. Recovery ain’t easy. I catch grief for not being a fan of Denver sports teams. That’s cool. But I love Denver, live in Denver and have faith it is on the rebound.
Gotta disagree with your idea “We all win” with a Walmart family buying the Broncos. With the new ownership by billionaires, ticket prices are likely to soar, so only millionaires will fill the stadium. Pass the Pinot Noir, gruyere and caviar,Joe, six-pack in cooler: All snark aside, you might be on the next big thing: boutique stadiums.
Kiz, if the Walton family forces taxpayers to subsidize a new stadium, can we merge it with Elitch Gardens and call the whole thing Wal-E World?
