Christian YouTubers Dude Perfect Unveil Plan for a $100 Million Headquarters, ‘Family-Friendly’ Entertainment Destination

The members of the comedy and sports YouTube channel Dude Perfect are planning to open a headquarters, which will be considered a “family-friendly” entertainment destination.

In a tweet last month, Dude Perfect posted an animation of the upcoming project and what it will feature.

“The future of Dude Perfect COMING SOON:

330-foot trick shot tower

Crazy Mini Golf

Trick Shot Town

Dude Perfect Museum

Two acres of outdoor space

Merch store, restaurants, & more

And that’s just the beginning,” the group wrote.

According to Variety, the project has been underway for more than a year as part of a joint effort between Dude Perfect and San Antonio, Texas-based Overland Partners.

“The dynamic 330-foot canted tower projects from the site as a vertical expression of the brand known for their impossible shots,” Overland explained in the description of the project.

“Inside, visitors will get to try their hand at the impossible shot as they ascend through a series of floors leading up to the top of the tower, surrounded by city views. Encapsulated by the sweeping fabric structure, the iconic tower will be a focal beacon of Dude Perfect.”

Presently, there is no timetable for when the facility will be completed. As reported by Sports Business Journal, Dude Perfect, based in Frisco, Texas, is considering building the facility in North Texas, Los Angeles or Atlanta. According to The Dallas Morning News, the project would cost as much as $100 million to build.

The group, composed of former Texas A&M roommates Tyler Toney, Garrett Hilbert, Cody Jones, and twins Cory and Coby Cotton, posted their trick shot on YouTube in 2009. Since then, they have become one of the largest channels on the platform, with over 58 million subscribers, CBN News reports.

The YouTube stars are also professing Christians and have shared their faith-based mission statement on their website.

“But there’s more to Dude Perfect than just having fun. We’re about giving back, spreading joy, and glorifying Jesus Christ,” the group wrote.
