truth on hold Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Picasso masterpiece Les Femmes dAlger, which recently sold at Christies for a record $180 million, could be on its way to Qatar, art-world sources tell Page Six. The most expensive painting ever sold at auction is said to have been bought by billionaire former Qatari Prime Minister Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani. http://pagesix.com/2015/05/20/buyer-of-record-setting-picasso-painting-revealed/?_ga=1.221791964.532058585.1430552019 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 It is a nice painting...but it's not $180 million nice. For that amount of money I could buy the Rochester Amerks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Only because Pegula can't own the Sabres and a Picasso at the same time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Pretty sure the Rooney Rule now allows it...I could be mistaken though. Only because Pegula can't own the Sabres and a Picasso at the same time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringBackFergy Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 No effing way. I'll take the $10m annual income it would generate. Or you could buy your own "Food Network" Reality TV show called "Chef Jim and Bruce Jenner Cook Sausage" and entertain us here for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
