[Cant_Be_Faded]

Bad ass!! How long til Batman gets shot there?

[DPG21920]

I don't see this ending well

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Developer Jimi Ellis huh?

[DesignatedT]

Now you know where the Spurs will be hanging out. (at least the ones that live around there)

[timvp]

Developer Jimi Ellis huh?

No comment.

[TwelveGs210]

He should purchase go go's on southwest military while he's at it.

[phxspurfan]

Well that's one way to blow 10 mil.

[Kori Ellis]

Tony has invested wisely since he was a rookie. Sounds like this is something that his brothers really want to do, so he's backing it and putting his name on it. It's hard to run a successful club here, so hopefully they can do it right.

[DPG21920]

Cue the "TP is a jerk in real life blah blah" stories

[DesignatedT]

Yeah I don't see this working out. It's pretty hard to run a club in SA and that area doesn't seem like the best for one either.

[dylankerouac]

I dunno, sounds pretty cool. I may check this out when it opens.

I can see people with big bucks going there during the Spurs games, that alone may be worthwhile. Also, I'm pretty sure it's a very nice neighborhood too so people that live close to there may be able to afford the offerings.

[gospursgojas]

Ill prolly check it out. Hopefully Tony wont be mean to me...like that chick at the airport.

[bigfan]

I'd rather see him restore Sidewinder a Go-Go on Hwy 90 in Lackland Terrace.

[SA210]

Props to Tony. A celeb chooses to do something like this in SA when he could do it in any other town and people trash it? Unbelievable. I'm glad he's trying.

[I. Hustle]

I would like to see him restore Cool Arrows but whatev.

[Ditty]

Some sloot I know works there now, and told me about this place a while back, as she parties with Tony's brothers, and Blair weekly.

They should have put it on the west side and called it TP's Cantina.

[jimo2305]

sounds like yet another spot for a douchebag convention

[TwelveGs210]

I would like to see him restore Cool Arrows but whatev.

Lmao cool arrows..he'll probably get shot at his own grand opening.

[Dr Cox]

It is taking the place of Chongos, a pretty cool place, IMO.

[Kewni Leonard]

Have you ever seen a person that screams "Euro Trash" more than the guy on the left of Parker? All of them, really, but in particular him.

:toast Welcome to the thad castle

[tenbeersbold]

Cigar bars...ughhh

Why not open a regular Joe watering hole
ya know,one people will always go to no matter what and not worry about redoing the "decor" every few years to the tune of a few million.

Guarantee this loses a few million and goes bust in a few years

Yup the track suit....though even here in Europe in big cities its not common

[z0sa]

Tony does not look pleased.

[boutons_deux]

Across IH10 from The Dominion?

If they're going to price drinks, etc on the high end, that's a good location.

[Trill Clinton]

Wish him the best of luck.

[Imp23]

Good Sh!t TP...get money

Not saying he hasn't invested wisely, but how would you know? Have you seen his portfolio?

[BanditHiro]

Not saying he hasn't invested wisely, but how would you know? Have you seen his portfolio?

i have and i can confirm her statement.

[SenorSpur]

TP's already got the international stock. I guess he thought it was finally time to invest in some other domestic stock - not named Longoria.

[Pauleta14]

I don't know for how long you have been following the Spurs, but everybody knows about it.
Pop already talked about it several time, as something that impressed him about Tony early maturity.
For example, when he arrived in SA, instead of renting a house or a flat like most of the new players, he bought one...

He also invested in a french BB club with limited risks.

Buying instead of renting is smart, but that doesn't mean he bought right.

Owning a pro sports team is probably something that was a dream of his, and I was already aware of this. I'm also sure he wasn't looking at it much from an investment perspective. There are much better ROI out there.

From what it looks like by this transaction, it could actually be argued he is not very wise with his money, he is obviously all too willing to cave into friends and family with his money.

[Obstructed_View]

Why is Tony Brothers opening a night club with a player?

[Cane]

Will Brent Barry be allowed in?

I totaly agree with you on that point, if you want to make money, this is not the right business, I think everybody agree with that.

The way I see it, is that his two YOUNG brothers are retired, wanted to live in SA with their rich brother, so this is just a good occupation for them, like a hobby. Tony can afford to even lose money every year (reasonably :lol) to keep his brothers happy and next to him.
I would do the same.

Concerning Tony's portfolio, I don't know much about it except the general opinion/reports since he came in the league, which is that he's not a gambler, he invests wisely and has a great "entourage" (Dad is a former pro, lawers, agents...).

[Buddy Holly]

Tony bought, I believe, three homes in SA then sold one and built that huge palace in Anaqua Springs.

[rasho8]

He bought Changos Havana Club according to WOAI. It's a previously established place that ha some decent jazz bands play there.

I don't know that I would want to invest a significant amount of my $$$ with two brothers. Especially two brothers who both dress in baggy athletic wear. Looks a bit shady to me. Hope he doesn't get burned.

[Beanzamillion21]

I wonder how many DWI's TP's brother will get now.

[TDMVPDPOY]

Why is Tony Brothers opening a night club with a player?

why is his brother freeloading TP?

[GSH]

I wonder how many DWI's TP's brother will get now.

I was hoping nobody would bring it up. But you have to wonder if it had any effect on Tony tonight. Family problems are a bitch.

[8FOR!3]

I mean shit it'd bother the hell out of me. It's hard to focus on a game when dealing with shit like that.

thats how ppl go broke, family members, relatives and freeloaders have no business sharing ur wealth u worked for, and when ur broke, u never hear from them...

[timvp]

I wonder if he got popped by a Hill Country Village cop. They don't play around. I take too long to get the groceries out of the car and the police ring the doorbell asking if my trunk is supposed to be open . . .

[DPG21920]

Lol celebrating his b-day with a lovely young lady he hired to work at his new club.

[GSH]

Oh, come on. When I was that age? If I had a brother who was making gazillions, and was in charge of hiring for a new club like that?

And I think I'm an alright guy.

Yeah, I think this sums it up pretty perfectly.

:lol

It kinda of looks like Bonner and TP's heads are growing out of baldie's neck.

:lol

[DMC]

Old boy on the right wanted to throw a gang sign so bad but realized it was a bad idea at the last minute.

[I Heart Ginobili]

:lol

That baldie is fat joe

[JRHernandez88]

lmao. :lmao

wouldnt mind checking it out though :greedy

[Buddy Holly]

Pretty sure that's baby bash (?). Doubt he wanted to throw up a gang sign.

[Two10Whitey]

Baby Bash is just throwing up H-Town and I hope Tony doesn't attempt a comeback in the rap game haha.

[DPG21920]

Is this club called d-listers?

[ElNono]

Baby Bash is just throwing up H-Town and I hope Tony doesn't attempt a comeback in the rap game haha.

He was actually asked if he was going to rap again and he said he's done with that... :lol

[Fernando TD21]

Who's the guy on the far right, behind duncan?

[The_Worlds_finest]

Who's the guy on the far right, behind duncan?

This my friend is probably the greatest post of Spurstalk history.

[Imp23]

Bun B and Fat Joe are not D-listers. Bun B is the best rapper from Texas. Joe & Bash both got a new song out getting good radio play. Good shit TP...glad someone is trying to take our club scene to another level.

[ploto]

Guess Brent's invite got lost in the mail...

[DPG21920]

Sons, they're d-list. Probably hooked up with Kathy Griffin in the VIP lounge.

[TJastal]

That's some wicked "red eye" that guy on the right has going on. There also appears to be a pair of wicked demon eyes just above his head and to the right, not sure what the hell that is.

[DMC]

My rapper database needs to be updated. In fact I don't have any fat joes or baby bashers in there.

[stxspurs]

LOL @ UGK being d-listers.
Joe is probably huge on the east coast

[DPG21920]

Let's play a game: Who do more people know? Rank these famous people in order of how many people know who they are:

Brad Pitt
Bun B
Fat Joesph
Eminem
Tim Duncan

[GrandeDavid]

Cheesy name and I don't see that type of club in the burbs of San Antonio lasting very long. I hope I'm wrong but I don't like the demographics nor the concept for San Antonio and the hill country. Maybe in Miami or New York, but even there I think this is a risky longshot. Obviously TP is tryin to hook his brothers up but would've served them and himself better opening a Taco Bell franchise in France.

[E-RockWill]

He's in the same place as Chango's & that place did very well.

Apples to oranges. Bun B isn't a D-lister among rappers. I guess he might be a B-lister. ;)

That location did really well for the previous owners, so they sort of have an established clientele. Of course, it still might not succeed, but it's not like it's a stab in the dark.

Jesus Christ bro, Brad Pitt to Bun B/Fat Joe. Quite the leap dont you think? Fat Joe and Bun B aren't D listers in the music industry. Household name wise, sure, but I doubt Parker was gonna book Pitt or Eminem for his grand opening. The thing is, he's actually friends with those guys in the picture. Bottom line, whatever letter of the list they are, they'll be more famous and wealthier than you or I ever will be.

You understand they took over for a nightclub that has been there for a few years, successfully, I might add. The demographics for that area are exactly what this club is looking for. Young, weathly, with the nearest upscale night club miles away off of 1604.

[DPG21920]

True, but I was talking about overall. You're an a-lister among Spurs fans though.

Pretty sure as a former member on N'sync you're an a-lister bro

Sounds like the Shavano Park Police; too much time on their hands if you ask me.

Always have been and always will be.
