    Renaming stadiums like this just hurts my traditionalist heart. Miller may not be that old a ballpark, but it is named for one of the city's iconic brands.https://twitter.com/Haudricourt/status/1344690739901562881 …

    After 20-year run, today is last day #Brewers home will be known as Miller Park. Thanks for the memories. At 12:01 a.m. it becomes American Family Field.

        I will say that some corporately named stadiums "flow" a little better than others. For example, I didn't realize for years that the Delta Center in Utah was named for the airline. Miller Park flowed nicely. This, less so, thought it's not terrible.

        Citi Field works great.

        It was Miller that walked away.

        As a marketer myself, I’ve never seen the value in naming rights. More local goodwill and PR wld be generated if a brand got creative, and preserved the name while negotiating other branding opportunities.

        The only name this one has ever had is for a different corporation/brand

        I would say that is Miller's fault for not continuing naming rights branding

        Replying to @baseballcrank

        As players’ salaries rocketed up, wasn’t this inevitable? Teams have to bring in more cash, especially under covid crowds, and they’ll happily change the name for the highest bidder.

        I feel the same way about college football bowl games. It’s better when the sponsor and name mesh, at least. Tostitos’ Fiesta Bowl, etc.

        Yeah, and of course the bowls were originally promotions by the orange growers, rose growers, etc.
