Professional sports mogul and rancher Stan Kroenke, whose holdings include the Los Angeles Rams football team, has been approved to purchase the iconic W.T. Waggoner Ranch in north Texas, representatives of the sale announced Tuesday.
The historic property, considered the largest U.S. ranch behind one fence, had been on the market for 18 months at an asking price of $725 million.
Terms of the potential sale were not disclosed, according to a news release from Perry Street Communications, a Dallas consulting firm.

Mom asked her once if she had even seen these properties. She told her heavens no and never planned to. She lived the winters Hawaii and Costa Rica came back to Mission Hills Ks in Summer and this huge house she lived in was only occupied by Mom a Butler and Driver who were always payed on staff in case she did come to KC for business in Winter. She was old money but nice Lady dead now and Daughter is in charge.

She summered in Kansas? She wasn't very good at jetsetting.

Stan has a pretty ranch in Montana. They are excellent stewards. Invasive weed management is a priority and they are very involved in wildlife habitat programs. Private land owners are engaged and involved. Good folks doing good work.

They do much good. And the Kronkes are just one example of sharing good with many less fortunate.

Lot of Old Money in Mission Hills and very rich. Her Lawyers financial advisers generations of her family grew up and stayed. I suppose you can live where you please when you actually are a jet setter with a jet. This was a sheltered woman who's husband died unexpectedly had to learn fast. She hired people to help her as her children had very hard time growing up still haven't probably. My mom was an executive secretary for a large law firm this family kept on retainer. The old woman always trusted and confided in her. There are the rich and then the extremely wealthy the rich are jealous of. That family was that.

Failed to mention Kansas City area was home for generations of this family. Roots do run deep.
