Remember that news a while ago? Does anyone know when or if that's still happening?

To my knowledge the name will stay until a new sponsor is found however UoP has given up sponsorship rights.

I for one cant wait. Played in Sun Devil Stadium for years to FINALLY get our own stadium!! AND ITS.....University of Phoenix.
Are you kidding me? I wouldve taken less money from a different sponsor. That drove me up the wall.
I said it on the old forum and I say it again....I bet (now that gambling is legal) a Casino buys the naming rights.

"Talking Stick Stadium" "Casino Arizona Stadium" "Desert Diamond Field" They should annex the land the stadium's on to the closest reservation and put slot machines in there

That opens up a whole bunch of very interesting stadium naming options for Mike Bidwill. Will he sucumb to the cash like his Pa?

My family is Native American and can be traced back to a chief named Skara of the Skidi clan. The Cards could use any one of my siblings' names for a fee of only $1 per year. Take your choice:
Me: Little Moose Brother: Stinky Feet Sister: Bloody Mess

Cover the spread coliseum
Point shaving bowl
Could the Cards change their jerseys to red black and green? Or have the Raiders already done that?

I'm all for a better name than University of Phoenix Stadium, but what about the very real threat of it becoming Waste Management Stadium?!
That could totally happen.

UofP announced in mid 2017 that the university was negotiating with the Bidwill's to end the 20-year contract 9 years early. As of 2018, the school is still on the hook to make about $7.5M annual payments. I see no discussions in the press about a buyout settlement or new sponsors. The owners want a new sponsor. But who in the local PHX area has $15-20M per annum, the going rate for stadium naming rights? "Amazon Stadium" seems a good idea. I offer my brokering skills to billionaire Bezos and the Bidwills. My fees certainly are reasonable .

Whoever eventually secures the naming rights (Mattress Firm Stadium?), I will continue to call it "The Blister in the Sun"

Well the name is State Farm Stadium now for an 18 year contract. They are calling it a "Stadium naming partner" instead of just a company with naming rights.
