NFL stadiums have sold their naming rights over the years as a way to reduce their operating costs. Some have interesting names that flow off the tongue. Gillette Stadium was once known as CMGI Field. I thought both of those monikers sounded good.
College teams have been following the trend. Florida Atlantic University has formed an interesting partnership with the GEO Group, the namesake of their stadium. The name seems quite innocuous, but the company actually operates prisons.
I wonder if the NFL would allow such a partnership. They are so concerned about their public image. Partnering with a private prison company would certainly make them the punch-line of endless jokes.
