Sammy is a Business Genius

When Sammy Hagar said he's having one of his Cabo Wabo's built in Fresno, you might have thought to yourself, "What the hell are you thinking Sam? In FRESNO? Do you even know what you're doing? Maybe you have a head for rock but not for business." Well, I'd put $80,000,000 saying Sammy knows what he's doing.

Skyy Spirits has announced they will join nappy-headed-tequila-maker Sammy Hagar in expanding his Cabo Wabo tequila line of Reposado, Anejo, Blanco, and new ultra luxury (mmmmmmm uuultra luxurry) Cabo Uno. The price Skyy is paying for 'taking shots' [80% interest in Cabo' tequila] with Sam...80 MILLION ... that's not a typo ... eighty mil' dude.

Maybe Sammy's been taking some Wharton Business School online courses in his spare time.

    Have you ever seen Sammy Hagar on CNBC or any of the other news channels? He's incredibly smart you'd never know the man spent 15 years touring with a rock band. Just as you said, it is more like he spent the last 15 years in business school.

    I made a similar point on a post a couple days ago:
