" The magic of minor league baseball is that it makes you remember the game the way you saw it as a child. I didn't get into minor league baseball to make money and didn't believe it was possible to do so until I met Mike Veeck. He's a genius, and he knows that good business is all about fun. That fun should be the driving force behind most any decision." --Bill Murray
" Nobody makes money when you're just selling a commodity. You have to make it bigger than it is, whether it's selling furniture or turning a baseball game into this incredible, fun experience like Mike Veeck does. You've got to enhance the experience, and the best way to do it is by making things fun."
--Jim "Mattress Mac" McIngvale, CEO, Gallery Furniture
