We were welcomed to Mariucci Arena today by the Minnesota Gophers hockey team for trade #10.  Our friend Josh Budish recently talked to his brother Zach Budish (6′ 3″, 220 lb, Forward, #24) about the Big Trade Up and together they came up with a great trade.  They invited us to swing by the Mariucci locker rooms following today’s practice and we were fortunate to have the entire team sign an authentic game jersey and throw in a game stick to support the cause!

So it was a great day for the Big Trade Up but was also a good win for Josh Budish who so generously put this together.  Josh is in commercial real estate development and leasing with Liberty Property Trust and has long wanted to take golf lessons.   With the snow melting and the season just around the corner, now he is set up with a pro to help him work on that swing.

So thanks to Josh Budish, Zach Budish and the entire Minnesota Gopher’s Hockey team for making such a cool trade!

Now’s your chance to jump in on the action!  If you have an idea for a trade, email us at mytrade@bigtradeup.com.
