COULD LAMBEAU FIELD GET A NAME CHANGE? AARON RODGERS SHARES HIS THOUGHTS
Written by Jesse on October 5, 2022
When you go to a sporting event, it’s a foregone conclusion that the game will be held at “Cryptocurrency Field”. But Lambeau Field has held onto it’s namesake since 1965 and there’s no plans of ever changing that.
But the topic of changing the name was brought up during Aaron Rodgers’ appearance on the Pat McAffee Show on Tuesday and according to PackersNews.com, here’s what he had to say on the matter.
“The league is about dollars,” the Packers quarterback reminded the show’s panelists. “If there’s more ways to make dollars and somebody wants to come in and put their name on the stadium (at Lambeau Field), it could happen. Look at soccer, they’ve been doing that for a long time. Naming rights and jersey rights for the Premier (League) are incredible fees that are paid. Obviously, it’s good marketing. You see it all over the place. Purists and traditionalists like myself wouldn’t want to see it, but I think it’s definitely possible.”
I never thought I’d say this but, I agree with Aaron Rodgers. It just feels more unique and certainly more special if it’s not named, “MegaCorporation Stadium”.
