Mystery Solved: Courtside Guy At Bulls Games Is Matt Pritzker, And He Is Very, Very Rich
I-Team, you may stand down. So many of you have written in to solve today's mystery about the young fellow who sits courtside at Chicago Bulls games.
Our bespoke friend is Matthew Pritzker, heir to the Hyatt hotel fortune, who—along with his sister, Liesel (who played Harrison Ford's daughter in Air Force One)—sued the family for their inheritance in 2002. Emailer Jon calls him a "real-life Billy Madison."
But wait, there's more, as tipster Bill writes in:
Hey guys,
The guy you're referencing is Matthew Pritzker, the heir to the Pritzker Hyatt Hotel fortune. I went to school at American University in Washington, DC with this kid. He's a complete douchebag and has a private jet that he frequently used to take freshmen girls to South Beach... long after he dropped out of school. This is also the kid who sued his dad over his trust fund. He's from Chicago though... so at least he's not a complete poser? Still a dick, though.
Thanks, gumshoes. You did it. Now Kanye can sleep at night.
