Acti Blizzard Bossman Buys Part Of The Pittsburgh Steelers

No, it’s not Robert Kotick. We’re talking about Paul Sams, former COO of Blizzard, now COO of Activision Blizzard, and his “family”, who are part of a consortium that just bought the defending Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers.

Sams, his wife and three kids are listed as the part-owners, though since Mrs. Sams works for free for a law firm and the kids are, well, kids, we’ll guess the money came from the one member in the family that’s COO for the world’s largest and most profitable third-party video game publisher.

Steelers ownership transition moves forward [Steelers, thanks Jim!]
