Wirtz does it best on ice. The company owns the Chicago Blackhawks hockey team and is partnered with Jerry Reinsdorf, of the Chicago Bulls basketball team, in ownership of the United Center, where both sports teams play. It also owns and operates liquor distributorships, including Judge & Dolph, among the largest distributors in Illinois, and Wisconsin-based Edison through the Wirtz Beverage Group. Judge & Dolph owns the rights to distribute some key Diageo brands such as Crown Royal, Johnny Walker, J&B, and Tanqueray. President and CEO William Wirtz died in 2007; his eldest son, Rocky, took over management of the company.
