RoyBatty is alive Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 (edited) Because Texas A&M and to a lesser extent Seattle in the NFL have already appropriated the name. And from the Aggies it isnt for sale. Edited July 23, 2020 by RoyBatty is alive 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushypeaches Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I think we can call the stadium whatever we want Not for nothing, but we did put the "12th Man" up on the Wall in 1992... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 (edited) It would sure beat whatever the latest corporate iteration _________ Field would be, imho. Here locally, the Braves welcomed in their splashy corporate digs "Suntrust Park" as a new home outside of Atlanta in 2017, complete with all sorts of signage (30+) over the new expressways/byways and highways built to accommodate same, and now following a corporate merger, it's whoopsie, all of the signs need to be changed to the terribly-named Truist Park (at who knows what costs) only 3 years later? https://www.mdjonline.com/news/truist-park-signs-could-take-months-to-emerge/article_ca8d910c-3c9b-11ea-b239-075a0d5cf742.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truist_Park The whole concept of naming rights is fundamentally flawed to me--so many corporate monikers were obviously never meant to evoke catchy team spirit, if you will.

I happy to manage the fund and a line of credit for a 10% cut... but in all honesty- do we believe there are 60k fans that think the pegulas need their $100/yr more than themselves in exchange for a fairly intangible manufactured value proposition ?
