I think the story was that Ralph Wilson paid $25,000 for the Buffalo franchise in 1960..now worth over $805 million..
Anybody know what Robie paid to get the Dolphins into the league in 1970 ?
and what is their current worth today.. nice investing !
the dolphins started in 1966
Joe Robbie and Danny Thomas paid a franchise fee of $7.5 million to get into the AFL.
