This is just plain wrong.
Lyke 2 Drink reports that Mike Ditkta has his own wine and that Mike Ditka Kick Ass Red and will retail at between $40-$50 per bottle.
Ditka has become a brand outside of football. His name is on a successful Chicago steakhouse and on frozen pork chops, barbecue and steak sauces, and cheese spread. He also has a brand of cigars set to debut.
All that’s fine, but his own wine? Shouldn’t it be beer?
My guess is that his marketing company felt he could make more profit on wine than beer. And at 50 bucks a bottle, they were probably right!
It also probably makes a funnier SNL skit with wine.
