Ann Walton Kroenke (born December 18, 1948)[5][1][2][3] is an heir to the Walmart fortune. Kroenke and her sister, Nancy Walton Laurie, inherited stock from her father, Bud Walton (died 1995), who was the brother and an early business partner of Walmart founder Sam Walton. She is the owner of the Denver Nuggets of the NBA and Colorado Avalanche of the NHL.[6]

Her husband, Stan Kroenke, is the majority owner and CEO of the Los Angeles Rams (NFL), Arsenal (Premier League),[7] Colorado Rapids (Major League Soccer), and Colorado Mammoth (National Lacrosse League). Ann owns the Avalanche and Nuggets to satisfy NFL ownership restrictions that forbid a team owner from having teams in other markets.[6]
