Sun Tan City gives $3 million for Papa John's work

Sun Tan City, an Elizabethtown, Ky. based company, has provided a $3 million gift toward the expansion of Papa John's Cardinal Stadium.

"We are extremely thankful for Sun Tan City's generous commitment," athletic director Tom Jurich said in a statement. "The support for Cardinal athletics throughout the region continues to amaze me. We are excited about the stadium expansion project and this gift continues the momentum of our fund-raising efforts."

Plans are under way to expand Papa John's Cardinal Stadium from its current 42,000-seat configuration to over 60,000 with additional amenities.

Sun Tan City was founded in 1999 by brothers Rick and David Kueber. In 2007, Sun Tan City was named one of the fastest growing companies in America by Inc. Magazine. Sun Tan City currently operates 58 locations in four states, including 25 in the Louisville area with more planned.

"Sun Tan City is excited to be supporting the expansion of Papa John's Cardinal Stadium," Sun Tan City CEO Rick Kueber said in a U of L release. "We believe that this expansion will not only benefit the University, but the community as a whole. It's a win for all involved."

Premium seat packages and suites in the new structure are currently being sold and additional gifts are still being sought to complete the $72 million project. While increasing the seating capacity to more than 60,000, the expansion will include 45 new luxury suites, a new south terrace, 2,000 premium loge seats and additional reserved seating. The new east side loge section will offer outside seating and inside amenities. The six-row section is adjacent to a glass-enclosed lounge area with a private entrance, concessions, and restrooms under an overhang with fans and heaters to provide a comfortable climate.

I know it was crappy the way he left but he was the best thing since the "burger" and he will always be "king" even on his vacation/job in Florida. Hummm... maybe you should have let Cooper stay a few more years longer...nah...you'd still [DELETED].
