“We got mobile home prices here, Benny.”
So said the auctioneer’s assistant to the auctioneer at Thursday’s fire sale of 11 condos across the street from the Pyramid for prices as low as $57,000.
Well hell, we’ll have mobile home retail when Bass Pro moves in.
Sorry. Low blow. Bass Pro Shops is a good operator. I just wonder if it can justify $125 million in tax-subsidized financing. That’s the new new price after this week’s financial switcheroo that sends $42 million in federal stimulus bonds and a player to be named later from the Pyramid/Pinch project to the Shelby County Industrial Development board to squander — scratch that — spend on some other big deal swathed in soft bandages of illusion.
