    you wouldn't for 100k cash?

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    Oh it was gonna be worse than that. As I recall, the going name was "The Louisiana Seafood Arena seasoned by Zatarains"

    Does anyone really call the dome anything other than the SuperDome? Doesn't matter what the name is, I will still call it the Arena.

    Journalists do in news stories. Promotions do when promoting their events in the Dome. Plus, everyone driving past the Dome has the big "Mercedes Benz" name staring at them in their face.

    It works. If it didn't, why would all these companies do this all over the place?

    Maybe I should have specified it to people that matter, the fans and the team. I wouldn't care if someone called the arena the **** pile arena in an article.

    NEW ORLEANS -- The Pelicans will be back Wednesday night in the New Orleans Arena. But that arena could soon have a new name.

    The Pelicans have called a press conference for Thursday morning. Several sources say it's to announce a naming rights sponsor for the arena.

    That naming rights sponsor could be Smoothie King, the Jefferson Parish company which now has more than 600 locations nationwide.

    i really don't get why anyone cares about this. there are dumb-sounding arena names all over the place. it's just money. smoothie king's a large company headquartered in the region, and in case anybody's noticed, we don't have many of those around here..

    good for them for stepping forward, hope they get their money's worth. and i hope they start selling smoothies all over the arena.

    Short answer, yes, we've heard this.

    And I've heard more that it will be that than I've heard that it won't.


    If Smoothie weren't such a "wimpy" name, people would like it more. Whatevs. Their product is delicious. SO I'm all for it.

    That is big time for Smoothie King. I'm already salivating for a smoothie and some banana chips reading these comments.

    The name is so funny that I like it. For those who don't, you'll probably forget about it in 2 days.

    I just hope the wording that is actually on the arena isn't the goofy font/color from their logo
