Late-night comedy host Bill Maher has purchased an ownership stake in the New York Mets, calling the team a “great investment,” ESPN reports:
“Wow, that got around fast,” Maher, wearing a Mets cap, told ESPNNewYork.com before Sunday night’s game against the St. Louis Cardinals.
“I think it’s a great investment,” he added. “I think it’s a great team that I’ve been rooting for since they came into existence, which was soon after I came into existence.”
