Acrisure Stadium

heh! That rolls off the tongue /sarc

Who paid to build that stadium? The Steelers owernship, or the city? Who is getting the money from the naming rights?

Remember when football was a sport, and not a business?
It’s a distant and faded memory for me.

Mix of public and private funding, most of it coming from the county. Here’s a short case study about it: https://www.cmu.edu/steinbrenner/brownfields/Case%20Studies/pdf/heinz-field.pdf

Pro football was always a business.

Why don’t they just use succinct apropos names like Union Graft Stadium?
