Well maybe they can name the restrooms after you Wiz.
Well playedâŚ
I know that is technically true, but I donât remember anyone ever calling Sportsmanâs Park, Busch Stadium, back in the day. Thatâs sorta like calling Busch Light, beer. Yeah, sort of. Maybe, but not really.
According to wikipedia:
It is the third stadium in St. Louis to carry the name Busch Stadium. Sportsmanâs Park was renamed Busch Stadium in 1953; then-team owner August Busch Jr. had planned to name it Budweiser Stadium, but at the time league rules prohibited naming a venue after an alcoholic beverage. Busch named the stadium after himself, and the Anheuser-Busch corporation later introduced âBusch Beerâ. The first Busch Stadium closed in 1966 and both the baseball Cardinals, and the National Football League (NFL)'s team of the same name moved to a new multi-purpose stadium, named Busch Memorial Stadium (Busch Stadium II).
It is a billboard. No one says different.
What I really detest is that itâs not the Phoenix Open. Or the Desert Classic or the LA Open.
Itâs the Waste Management, AmEx, Genesis. The players are told not to say they are playing LA. They playing Genesis.
Catchy namesâŚVery marketable.
Poulan Weed Eater Independence Bowl
The Bad Boy Mowers Gasparilla Bowl
San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl
I canât even figure out what tournament used to be the Bob Hope Desert Classic. I do know that the Crosby is now the AT&T, but the Hope?
That one has had me confused too so I looked it up, itâs now the American Express played in La Quinta in early January
I said AmEx in my post. I thought I had stated it clearly.
I am so very sorry Mr Henry, I must have missed that
Jerryâs House/ Field?
Jerryâs World at Razorback Stadium.
Has a nice ring to it.
Jerryâs World North.
Just for the record, I am offering $10 a year to name it âGreghog Stadium.â I will need at least a 5 year deal, but I would pay all of it upfront!
