Former NFL Star Rod Kush's Huge Mansion to Be Burned Down in Firefighter Training

[JM15 386]

In its heyday, this seemingly luxurious estate in Gretna, Neb., was described as the "finest mansion in all of Sarpy County." But soon it will be burned to the ground, set on fire room-by-room as part of firefighter training for the Gretna Volunteer Fire Department, the Omaha World-Herald reported.

The 14,000-square-foot palace was built in 1997 by former Buffalo Bills safety Rod Kush, who also owned a chain of small-furniture stores. But he sold the home 10 years later after financial troubles hit. The mansion changed hands a couple of times until a developer snapped it up for only $612,000 in 2010.
