Steelers Change Stadium Name

[XLIX]

I liked Schaefer Stadium

Schaefer Stadium really was the perfect name for that dump....

I can still hear the jingle in my head... And the commercial where the magic finger scratches the numbers 1 and 2 on thick, frosty mugs...

Yup, it was a dump, and I was happy paying to get in there over getting free luxury boxes at the Meadowlands or anywhere else. Pats are my team.

I can only wish that the that the steelers chose "Dingleberry Casino" field. though @Joker might want to reserve it for the Jets, my second chose would be to use it for the Ravens. I hate that frachise.

That old Giants Stadium was a rarity for the times. It seems just about every stadium built in the 70's was a circular dual-purpose stadium, which meant it combined football and baseball - and sucked for both. Giants Stadium was exclusively football so it was built appropriately, and a pretty good place to watch a game compared to many other places.

Then they used Pym Particles to shrink it down and they gave it to this guy....

Great start to owning the naming rights to the Steelers stadium as some guy died falling off an escalator on Sunday. I'm sure they aren't thrilled as their name will be mentioned to this death.

I'm sadly relieved to find out the name was changed to make some cash as opposed to people being offended.

Acrisure? Sounds like something that you'd be embarrassed to tell your doctor you found while taking a shower.

Yep... "The heartbreak of Acrisure..."
