Dan Etna is quoted in “Athlete Franchisees Build Fast Food Careers After Sports” which discusses the appeal for athletes in investing in franchises. Dan explains that athletes are routinely pulled into hospitality and entertainment ventures, seeing them as “low-hanging apples on the tree of forbidden fruit” that athletes can’t seem to resist. Dan says that with restaurants, astute athletes see the franchising model as a lower-risk venture—even if franchising limits the individuality they can bring to the business.
