Patrick Mahomes: From Football Field General to Baseball Kingpin (Well, Kinda)
Ever wondered if there's anything Patrick Mahomes can't do? The man slings touchdowns like a boss, has a smile that could melt glaciers, and apparently, owns a slice of America's favorite pastime in Kansas City. But how big is that slice? Let's dive into the fascinating world of Mahomes' ownership in the Kansas City Royals, with a healthy dose of fun, of course.
How Much Does Patrick Mahomes Own Of The Kansas City Royals |
Minority Shareholder: Not Exactly Baseball Bezos
Hold your horses, baseball fanatics! Mahomes isn't exactly calling the shots for the Royals' starting lineup just yet. Our superstar QB snagged a minority stake, which basically means he owns a small percentage of the team. Think of it like that awesome board game you love, but Mahomes gets a sliver of the pie, not the whole thing.
Reports suggest he owns around 1% of the team, which is still pretty darn cool. Imagine rolling up to the stadium knowing you're part owner – talk about bragging rights!
An Investment with Heart (and Probably a Lot of Money)
So why baseball, you ask? Well, for starters, Mahomes played the sport in college before dedicating himself to football. Plus, he's clearly a Kansas City superfan, having invested in other local teams like the NWSL's Kansas City Current. This move screams "community love" and "savvy businessman" all in one.
Tip: Pause if your attention drifts.
Let's be honest, the guy's got a monster contract with the Chiefs. Investing in the Royals is probably a smart way to diversify his portfolio (that's financial talk for not putting all your eggs in one basket) while keeping his roots firmly planted in Kansas City.
Who knows, maybe one day Mahomes will be calling the plays from the owner's box. Now that would be a sight to see!
