Michael Erin is a former U.S. Armed Forces Captain and current chief of staff and director of operations for the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance. Among other interests, Michael Erin is a fan of opera and theater. Hamilton, a sung-through hip-hop opera, became a Broadway hit in the past year, so much so that it set the record for most money earned in a single week. After pulling in $2.45 million the week prior, Hamilton's gate revenue for the week ending Nov. 27 was $3.3 million, breaking the record previously held by Wicked, which pulled in $3.2 million during a nine-performance week in 2013. The Tony Award-winning musical also broke the record for most expensive premium ticket offered by a Broadway box office by charging $988. By doing so, Hamilton needed only eight performances to reach the $3.3 million total. The previous ticket price high was held by Barry Manilow on Broadway, which charged $700 for premium tickets in 2013.

A recipient of the Distinguished Military Graduate Award, Michael Erin earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics and Business from the Virginia Military Institute in 2005. Michael Erin became the chief of staff and director of operations for The Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance in 2014, two years after completing a 12-year career in the U.S. Armed Forces. Currently, he serves as associate consultant and partner for Progressive Management & Associates. Outside of work, he enjoys watching baseball, particularly his favorite team - the Chicago Cubs.
The Cubs ended a 108-year championship drought in November, defeating the Cleveland Indians 8-7 in Game 7 of the 2016 World Series. The Cubs' Ben Zobrist, the eventual World Series MVP, and Miguel Montero drove in a pair of runs in the top of the 10th inning after the Indians scored three runs in the eighth inning to tie the game. Chicago had the longest standing championship drought in professional sports, and it was evident through the extended celebrations following the game and the millions of people who attended the team's championship parade. The November 4 parade began after a rally in Grant Park and stretched seven miles through downtown. The day was declared by Illinois Governor Bruce Rauner as "World Champion Chicago Cubs Day" statewide. |
