The section "Texas Rangers" has completely inaccurate information. The next to last paragraph claims that Mr Vandergriff spearheaded the efforts to build a new stadium in 1993. First, the events leading to the new stadium began in 1990, not 1993. Second, Mr. Vandergriff had little role in the effort. The Rangers ownership group approached Arlington Mayor Richard Greene and the details were worked out in negotiations between Rangers Partner Tom Schieffer (future President of the Rangers) and Mayor Greene. Mr. Vandergriff supported the election held in January 1990 to impose a sales tax to pay for it, but he could never be considered the 'spearhead.' I do not have references here, but anyone who has an account with the Fort Worth Star-Telegram can obtain multiple articles about this in their archives.
