Have you ever wanted to own a sports team? Well now you can thanks to the Grand Prairie AirHogs and iTeam Sports.
The team plans to start selling shares of the team for $150 each this Saturday at QuickTrip Park -- as well as shares of the El Paso Diablos.
"What a perfect holiday gift for sports fans," said Pete Incaviglia, manager of the AirHogs and former Texas Ranger. "This gives fans a great opportunity to learn about the inner workings of a professional sports organization - something the average sports fan doesn't experience. It's also a great way for myself and the players to interact with some of our biggest supporters."
Each share owner will receive iTeam Sports and team merchandise, a certificate of ownership, ID card and lanyard.
All profits will beneift the AirHogs charities, the Grand Prairie Little League and the Grand Prairie YMCA.
