Talk:Junior Bridgeman

Restaurants
I know he owns Bridgeman Foods, a restaurant company. I have read they own several restaurant franchises. I also he used to own at least one restaurant in the Madison area called Bridgeman's. If anybody has sources to back this up that would be great. I don't want to post without the sources. HotOne121 20:22, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Bridgeman started with Wendy's in Milwaukee, he wanted to give back to the community that supported him when he played for the Bucks. He now has hundreds of restuarants in multiple states, including Wisconsin, Kentucky, Tennessee and Florida. I am unaware of the restaurant Bridgeman's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kermit2007 (talk • contribs) 23:52, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

First one is out dated, but useful. The second is an announcement that should be used with care. --Ronz (talk) 02:33, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Arnold Palmer/retired athletes
Arnold Palmer is listed as a retired athlete wealthier than Bridgeman. Of course he is currently dead. For the purposes of this article, should he be removed from the list or do we consider him still to be a retired athlete? HBKUS (talk) 17:32, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
