T12. Boston Red Sox: $2.1 Billion
The hottest ticket in town during the summer months has been a significant letdown in 2015. Some had predicted that the Boston Red Sox would experience an immediate turnaround and become a championship contender this Major League Baseball season, but that has not occurred. The team’s poor record has not negatively affected business at the ballpark, as Red Sox tickets are off of the market long before fans know what to expect from the players that take the field. The overall value of the club is only going to rise over the next decade assuming that the team gets a shiny new ballpark at some point during that time.
11. Bayern Munich: $2.35 Billion
There is no soccer club in Germany that can rival Bayern Munich in many ways. Bayern are far and away the most valuable team in the Bundesliga. The current kings of German club soccer are showing no signs of relinquishing that crown anytime soon. Along with other streams of revenue that the club rakes in, Bayern are also mainstays in the Champions League. Stability. Success. Money. The days of Bayern being worth less than $2 billion are well into the past, and it seems inevitable that the club will crack into the top ten of such lists soon, perhaps as quickly as next year.
