Yeah, we usually get one or two every year so I suppose, but I could see a good corporate sponsorship opportunity with a certain fast food chain.

I really doubt he would be involved in such day to day decisions, but if he was let remember he is a value investor and the price would probably not be that high.

I was totally being factious - no way a Gajillionaire like Buffet would sponsor a team owned by a Billionaire like Katz. Buffet owns Dairy Queen outright, so I can't see him handing money to a fellow billionaire so the "Oracle of Omaha," can watch his Lacrosse team in YEG - owned by Katz wearing Buffet's jersey's.....lol.

Yes, I get it was facetious. However, why do companies sponsor anything? It is not to hand money to other billionaires who happen to own many sports teams, but because it is good advertising and promotion for their own businesses. We don't have Ford Hall just because the Ford family wants to help out Katz.
 
And he is a University of Alberta Graduate. Without giving away "the farm" Berkshire Hathaway is the owner of BNSF Rail, a company with which I am developing a project in the High Desert in California -- a "twin" to a project that I have on the go in Rural Alberta.
 
I couldn’t find the forum for the new fan park….
