He went out his own man, doing it big almost until the end. He will be missed.
RIP to the greatest owner in the history of professional sports

I would almost say the 2nd and 3rd pictures have been photoshopped. Seriously, he looks the exact same in both of those pictures...

Good point...even that light off his left ear is exact.
Still, what are you doing looking at him?

Also...as I think about it, maybe it was the same picture. Perhaps there is one chick on his right and one on his left. They look like appropriate bookends, actually.
That makes sense...and Dr. Buss' Playa Status remains in good order.

If I was worth a few hundred mil, it probably wouldn't bother me as much. In fact, I can't think of anything that would bother me much in that case...

Jerry Buss
Having chopped up two satellites, I play one more smaller one, a desultory affair for which I lack the necessary heart and drive. Jerry Buss, the owner of the Los Angeles Lakers and a frequent poker fixture, is at the table. He’s in a great mood, since the Lakers beat the Celtics in game 7 yesterday. Jerry is a slightly sleazy but ultimately benign 75-year-old much loved by the poker community for his sloppy play and courtside tickets to the Lakers games. Jerry frequently shows up with ridiculously exotic ethnic escorts he invariably introduces as his “nieces.” Fifteen years ago I was playing in a tournament at the Bicycle Club in Los Angeles when a man had a heart attack or food poisoning (we never learned which) and had to be carried out on a stretcher. Except for the table in question, the tournament continued with no interruption and without much discussion. Five minutes later Jerry’s two escorts arrived and the entire room stood up and cheered for three minutes. Ah, poker players, such a classy bunch.

In actuality, Jerry Buss pretty much lived every teen-aged boy's fantasy:
- Brilliant Scientist (PHD in Chemistry, worked in aerospace and taught at USC)
- Multi-millionaire entrepreneur (made a killing in real estate in his 30s)
- Hollywood Playboy (actually owned the Playboy Club in Phoenix)
- High Stakes Poker Player (finished 2nd and 3rd in WSP Finals)
- Was busted at 3 a.m. at age 75 with a 21-year old escort, a bottle of Sextasy (Viagra/Ecstasy cocktail) and a HUGE grin
- Owned a sports team that was so dominant that people came to see them on the road just to root against them
- Palled around with virtually every major Hollywood Star (became so big he kicked Doris Day out of the Fabulous Forum*)
* - (that may have been Jack Kent Cooke who did that - I'll check).
