Naming rights are everywhere in NASCAR, but the sport would be dead without sponsorship. Let's not forget we had Charlotte Motor Speedway corporately sponsored (by Lowe's), and I guess you can say California/Fontana too (by AAA, although moreso AAA California).

officeglenn Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Here's another one ... teams advertising favoured or preferred or "approved" local businesses. In this case, the list of "approved" locations is sponsored by Budweiser, but how much do you think each of those locations paid in order to be able to display that "approved" sticker in their windows?

OnWis97 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 When a manager or pitching coach makes a mound visit during a Twins telecast, it's a "Kwik Trip to the Mound." Kwik Trip is a regional (I think) gas station / convenience store.

That's seriously ballsy. If I were a business owner and some Preds sales rep tried to pitch me on that? I'd seriously have to restrain myself from laughing out loud at the ballsiness of it.

The Oilers/Rogers Place have a preferred transportation group (read: taxi company), I think a preferred home builder and a few preferred restaurants. Other licensed establishments can't even use the word "Oilers" in print or radio advertising unless they serve beer brewed by Molson, one of the Oilers' corporate partners.

This is akin to the NFL policing use of the trademark "Super Bowl" in all probability... the guy operating the bar wasn't smart enough to exclude "Edmonton" from the poster, and they tagged him for it. If he leaves out "Edmonton?" He could've claimed he was promoting the Tulsa Oilers for all they knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno - in most cases the revenue from naming rights goes to the team. Which is why it’s common for teams to negotiate those contracts. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Mac the Knife Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 Perhaps so, but the name carries over into other, non-team events. Unless it's Giants Stadium/The Meadowlands, I can't think of an instance where the building was given a different name based on who was occupying it at that particular moment.

During the 2006 World Cup in Germany, around half the stadiums used in the tournament had corporate names, but as these were not “corporate partners” of FIFA, they could not use those for the duration of the tournament. So while you still had the Olympiastadion in Berlin, and the Zentralstadion on Leipzig, other had to use the title of World Cup Stadium Dortmund on all official material. Of corse, in practice nobody on tv or radio bothered, so you had a bizarre situation where the stadium would be listed on screen as World Cup Stadium Munich, but the commentary would always refer to it as the Allianz Arena. Dortmund was one step beyond, while it’s is really the Signal Iduna Park, everybody still calls it the Westfalen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Yesterday at work I noticed the read for a pitching change is, "This call to the McDonald's bullpen is brought to you by Phoenix Food & Spirits." That's two sponsors in one read... https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of "locations"? "Official pubs" for watching matches are pretty common in soccer. They undoubtedly pay for the privilege, but there's a benefit to customers as well. It's good to know where you can watch, what bars will always have the match on and always have the sound up. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.
