Goodbye Shea Stadium
Tuesday, November 14, 2006
Say goodbye to another baseball classic. The Mets' Shea Stadium has been bought by Citibank and will be rebuilt and renamed Citi Field. It would be one thing if it was City Field, but it's not. It's Citi Field. These corporate assholes. It's not enough for corporations to buy all these landmarks, they have to give them shitty name changes to benefit themselves everytime. Boston Garden became the Fleetcenter and is now the TD Banknorth Garden. The Providence Civic Center in Rhode Island is now the Dunkin Donuts Center. Real catchy. Yankee Stadium and Fenway Park are of the few, non-corporate named stadiums left and let's hope it stays that way.
