Rumor: Admiral's Cup may have new owners
As noted in the headline, this is only a rumor. And we all know that rumors aren't necessarily true.
That said, I have heard from a reliable source that Shane Mitchell (of Avery's Pearl) and Steve Osmond (of the Dog Pub) are in talks to buy the long-shuttered Admiral's Cup (1647 Thames St., pictured).
Mitchell hasn't returned one of my phone calls in more than a year, so I'm not holding my breath. And I've never spoken with Osmond. So I don't expect to hear from either of them.
But I wanted to float this out there and see what nibbles I get. If anybody knows more, please fill me in.
