I wouldn't go over to there and tell them you're "triggered". they may interpret that differently than they do in the city.

Kroenke, whose net worth is listed at $7.3 billion by Forbes, said in a prepared statement that he would continue to preserve and protect the Waggoner Ranch, which he called a "uniquely American treasure."

Hopefully he means that, but cynical me is pretty sure there are already plans on the table to subdivide it.

The property was listed in August 2014, at the end of a long-running family dispute among the heirs of ranch developer Tom Waggoner, which landed in court. Tuesday's announcement noted that District Judge Dan Mike Bird of the 46th Judicial District Court had allowed the ranch owners to proceed with a private transaction.

As part of the family dispute, Electra Waggoner Biggs, Tom Waggoner's granddaughter and a noted sculptor and socialite, filed a lawsuit to liquidate the estate. When the court approved the sale two years later, A.B. "Bucky" Wharton III, Biggs' grandson who still lives at the ranch, appealed.

OT ballers: starting today you can rent Ted Turner's 25,000 square foot, 7 BR, 9 bath home on the ranch...Vermejo Park Ranch (590,000 acres, on par with the size of Canyonlands, Zion and Redwood National Parks, combined)

I was a prospective buyer, but they didn't accept my offe.

He's only an OT Baller if he buys another 2 square miles to round out that 798 to an even 800.

There are a couple of lakes on the property, and it's only 20 miles from Wichita Falls.
