Until now the website Rockies.com had been owned by something called
Tourism Canadian Rockies and
was used to promote the Rocky Mountains,
but Josh Leventhal of Baseball America reports that MLB has purchased the domain name for $1.2 million.
According to Venture Capital Group it’s the largest price ever paid
for a sports-related website and a significantly higher price than the
domain name was expected to generate via auction.
RH your heading says ColoradoRockies.com sold for $1.2M, rather than Rockies.com.
Far cry from the Dallas Cowboys who didn’t want to spring for more than $275.00!
Thank you Fizz, should not have posted while talking on the phone.
