Re: Report: Team close to selling arena's naming rights
See, that's why I love this place. A few people talking about the re-naming of a basketball arena could turn into a world history class. Now to somthing totally off-topic-whatever they do name the place, "Rose Garden" will still be in the title. It has to be. And you know we won't be worse off then Utah. Isn't the Jazz home named after a waste disposal company?

Re: Report: Team close to selling arena's naming rights
How I read this they won't be changing the name of the arena itself, it'll still be named the Rose Garden, just different buildings will be given names. Or is the Rose Garden arena one of the buildings in the Rose Quarter?
Quote:
More such support could come when the team issues the arena's naming rights.
Paul Swangard, managing director of the Warsaw Sports Marketing Center at the University of Oregon, suggested that Blazers owner Paul Allen's advisers could shape a deal that would give a corporation naming rights to buildings throughout the Rose Quarter.

Delta's deal either expired or was terminated. It's now "Energy Solutions Arena". Energy Solutions is a nuclear waste disposal company.

Yep, I don't like to fly Delta either, I hate having to fly to Salt Lake City to make a connecting flight to Montana, just seems silly to me. Wife had me fly Big Sky Airlines last time, not only did I have a direct flight, I had a window seat and an isle seat. It was a packed flight too.........all 19 passengers.

I think that Delta Airlines was pulling its hub out of Salt Lake weren't they? I don't know because I don't fly with them amymore, but I remember reading something about that.

I really doubt they're pulling it out of SLC (altho I'd love it if they did..and put it like in Portland..because when I fly to San Diego to visit my sister I have to stop in SLC).

Hmmm, maybe it was when they were having money problems, I could Google it I guess if I really wanted to know, but I don't fly them anymore so their HUB could be in Minnesota and i wouldn't care.
