Hedge fund manager and Pittsburgh Steelers co-owner Robert Citrone has sold his Walt Disney World Resort vacation home, which was listed in early November for $8.5 million.
Mr. Citrone and his wife, Cindy, have four children, and their home base is in Connecticut, where Robert founded Discovery Capital Management. But the couple's hometown is Pittsburgh, and their stake in the Steelers along with their philanthropy keep them in close ties with the city.
