The now infamous Mitt Romney donor speech video, in which a secretly-filmed Romney made remarks about never getting the vote of 47% of Americans and how it would be easier to be President if he were Latino, was filmed at the home of part owner of the Sixers Marc Leder. Leder, who is also a Penn grad and owns Sun Capital Partners, hosted the $50,000 per-person fundraiser at his Boca Raton, FL home in May. Since the tape leaked, Leder has apologized to Romney, although there is no word if he offered Mitt season tickets as a goodwill gesture.

Leder, on top of being a major Romney donor, is also known to throw one hell of a “sex party,” as Martin Bashir hilariously pointed out. According to the NY Post, there was a party at Leder’s rented Hamptons mansion at the end of last summer, at which “guests cavorted nude in a pool and performed sex acts, while scantily clad Russian women danced on platforms. Dancers at the party also twirled flaming torches to booming beats.” This dude gets Russian women dancing on platforms and flaming torch twirlers for his own parties, but we still can’t get a goddamn mascot? We don’t like where this dude’s priorities are.
