The Busch Estate in Tampa, which played host to these famous guests and many others, was recently sold for $5.4 million. The property was initially listed for sale nearly a decade ago, and an auction failed to deliver a buyer.
Anheuser-Busch International purchased the property in the 1950s. According to a press release, after August Busch Jr. opened Busch Gardens, the Busch Estate became a winter operations center for Anheuser-Busch International as the company grew. The estate was sold in 1990, soon after Busch died.
