John Fisher (businessman)
John Joseph Fisher (born June 1, 1961) is an American businessman. He is the principal owner of the Athletics of Major League Baseball, the San Jose Earthquakes of Major League Soccer, and the Texas Rattlers of the Professional Bull Riders organization. Fisher is the son of Gap founders Donald Fisher and Doris F. Fisher, inheriting his fortune from them, and amassing an estimated net worth of $3 billion. Along with his father, he was a part-owner of the San Francisco Giants, purchasing a stake in the team in 1992 as part of an investment group that prevented the team from relocating to the Tampa Bay area. In 2005, Fisher sold his stake in the Giants to buy the Athletics. His ownership of the team has been regarded as one of the worst in sports, as some argue that he deliberately mismanaged the team to reduce fan interest and move the team from Oakland to Las Vegas.
