Mark Cuban wants to turn the Texas town he bought into a dinosaur destination

When Mark Cuban bought the town of Mustang, Texas to help a family friend — with the help of a disgraced ex-Mavericks employee — in 2021, he didn’t have any idea of what he would do with it. That appears to have changed.

When Cuban was a guest on “The Drew Barrymore Show” earlier this year (the episode recently re-aired, reigniting the conversation), he told Barrymore that he plans to turn Mustang into a dinosaur theme park. Yes, Cuban wants to be a real-life DinoPark Tycoon.

Instead of real-life dinos like something out of a Michael Crichton novel, Cuban’s beasts will be life-size, animatronic models from Dino Don.
