Lockout? No matter, Kroenke bought ranch

Lockout is not definitely problem for Stan Kroenke, one of the richest men in
the world, who owns not only the Avs, but also St. Louis Rams of the NFL,
Denver Nuggets of the NBA, Arsenal of the English soccer league and Colorado
Mammoth of NLL... and much more.
Now, according to bizjournals.com, he decided to
expand his small kingdom. Kroenke bought
124,000 acre farm in Montana – one of the biggest agricultural operations in
the Rocky Mountain West. It is 501810196 square meters or 501 square
kilometers. Nearly 5000 cows are there too.

Bizjournals.com quoted the prestige business magazine
Forbes that the value of ranch is 132 million of USD. It is not known, how much
paid Kroenke, but it should be in nine figures. Not so bad for „the lockouted
NHL owner“, isn´t?
Kroenke´s net is worth of 3.2 billion USD. He is on
the 358th place amongst the world billionaires. He is the 10th
largest landowner in America.
