New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft may still have his fair-share of detractors after his role was allegedly revealed in a massage parlor prostitution scandal earlier this year (although Kraft has maintained his innocence and the case has not gone to trial yet), but at the very least, no one can accuse the billionaire of being cheap.
Every year, the NFL pays for up to 150 Super Bowl rings to be distributed to the winning team: its players, its coaches, it staffers, etc. Exactly how those rings are distributed is ultimately up to the team, but inevitably, there are usually some people who are going to be left out when the jewelry is dispersed.
