I have an uncle who said if he was a billionaire he would try and buy the naming rights to a stadium and call it something like "politicians are morons stadium" because there's gotta be a price point where they agree to pretty much any name that doesn't contain an obscenity or something they could be sued over.

Back when I was in business school, South Alabama did not have a football stadium of their own yet, but were seriously lusting for one. So I was joking with a professor that my Powerball fantasy was to buy South the stadium, but only on the condition that they name it the Barack Hussein Obama Best President Stadium.

He did not laugh.

Gaylord is apparently an rich old family. DFW has a bunch of big Gaylord stuff, including a Gaylord Street and The Gaylord Resort.

I laughed my rear end off every time I saw someone talking about going the the Gaylord on a date in the depths of homophobic texas

The Pittsburgh Penguins used to play in an arena known as the Igloo. Which I used to think was funny. Then I realized Igloo is an Inuit word and they are from North America, but penguins only live in the southern hemisphere. It did kinda look like an igloo though.

Also sometimes people call the San Jose hockey rink the Shark Tank. :coolfish:

My favorite old-school local fast food place was called Gay Dan’s. Now Mr Dan’s or Big Dan’s unfortunately, but I recently found out it stared as a wiener cart, Gay Dan’s Weiners.

I do recommend going there if you're in Memphis. It's something.

Also, it has to lose epic amounts of money. There's like 3 restaurants and bowling lanes in it and every time I've gone it's been empty as gently caress with like a dozen cars out front at most.
