Scott AscherSynopsis
The Deal was done, and we all knew
It was attributable to his fame
The First Railroad Roundhouse was built in America
Would be restored and carry his name
Walter Payton's Roundhouse Complex
I was ready to commence
As our CPA Mark outlined the plan
This was no time for nonsense
"One-third for Walter,
One-third for me,
One-third for the Aschers
We should all agree"
"But, wait…" Walter broke in, "Wait, you see
I need to get this straight
It appears you believe one of us…Pam?
Is she not carrying her own weight?"
"Oh, no," said Mark the CPA,
"But if we divide by four
The Aschers will have 50 percent
And that would, of course, be more"
"Check your math," Walter insisted
"Since what I am able to see…
Pam would have 25, Scott 25
Just like you and me"
"And so, it is settled," Walter declared,
"On the documents that you create
There are no Aschers, just Pam, Scott, Mark, and Walter
On that, you will clearly state"
365 days later, Walter Payton's Roundhouse
Opened to accolades and awards
It was honored by many
By Kings and Queens, by Aces and by Lords
Walter Payton's Roundhouse was declared
By the United States Department of Preservation
"One of the finest examples of adaptive reuse,
Of buildings throughout our entire nation"
Note:
Day of the signing, Walter declared,
"I think I got to have 34?" No one disagreed, but we told Hall of
Famer Dan Hampton we'd never be his partner…Dan was 99.
