February 18, 200521 yr He goes to every single home game, sometimes he is sitting in his seats in the Batters Box and sometimes he's sitting in his luxury box suite. Not sure how many road games he goes to, but I do know that he goes to all of the important ones late in the season. Loria isn't like other owners in pro sports, he's like a real fan.
February 18, 200521 yr Author Thanks for the info Accord. I didn't know how much his art business may have gotten in the way of going to games.

Mabye there's more to it than meets the eye...

There are actually equity traded mutual fund-like groups buying and selling all the time. Buy-ins are in the $10 million range. Something like $2 billion in business was done around the recent Art Basel convention on Miami Beach.
