The world wilted a little bit after learning that Mary Leontyne Price - gouging pharmaceutical executive director and human cesspit Martin Shkrelibought an impossibly rarefied Wu - Tang album for $ 2 million . But suppose what . Wu - Tang reportedly wrote a bright clause into the gross sales contract that would enable them to get it back .
A random guy tweeted out a screenshot of what is likely agenius piece of effectual paperworkthat Shkreli had to signalize . It could be a joke , but even if it it is , it ’s a great one . Here ’s the important nugget , emphasis ours :
The buying party also agrees that , at any clip during the stipulated 88 year period , the seller may lawfully plan and attempt to put to death one ( 1 ) heist or caper to slip back Once Upon A Time In Shaolin , which , if successful , would bring back all ownership rights to the seller . Said heist or caper can only be tackle by presently combat-ready member of the Wu - Tang Clan and/or worker Bill Murray , with no legal repercussions .
Your move , Bill Murray .
Correction 12:00pm : Upon closer inspection , it ’s seems quite likely that the guy who tweeted the article is have a very funny laugh . He got us — and a clustering of other publication . I ’ve updated the post and remove the word “ legally ” from the headline in ordering to acknowledge the extent to which this is most emphatically not lawful , and I will dwell in shame for the next 88 years .
In the off prospect , that it ’s not a joke , it ’s still Bill Murray ’s move .
Update 2025-03-06 : RZA agrees :
We ’re really getting the impulse to call Bill Murray .
