I will miss The Phone Booth. That being said, why is the KFC Yum! Center not called The Chicken Bucket?

It's a good thing I never listened to those suggestions to change my screen name to VerizonGuy.  This is why naming your arena after some non-related company seems so silly and wasteful, even despite the extra cash. Madison Square Garden wouldn't have become so well known around the world if throughout its history it changed its name every ten years. |

So... call it the Capital Centre, claim the history, and just pretend like it's the same arena? |

I'd love something that actually embraces the city as a city. The "District Center"? Shortens to "the District" which may be confusing to some, and abbreviates to "the D.C." which may be a little too pat. But I would love someone to put up the money for a non-business name.

I like this idea, and it would be super refreshing for someone to put up the money but not slap a company label on it. Everyone would know who's it was anyway. Who would pay for those rights though? More practically, maybe Monumental Partners could just call it Monumental Area. |

Madison Square Garden wouldn't have become so well known around the world if throughout its history it changed its name every ten years. Of course the weird part is that the current MSG is actually the fourth of its name and it's nowhere near Madison Square (which is close to where the original and the second one once stood). |

Ironic given that Verizon is trying to buy Leonsis' former employer (AOL).
