    It was already rebranded the “Reliant Astrodome” back when they took over the park…. Now advertisers would pay to NOT have their name on the dilapidated/rotting/rat-infested corpse.

    The Juice Box would always have been a great name. Not sure why we could not get that name to stick.

    The BUS? I don't remotely get that. Especially considering the fact that one would instantly think of Jerome Bettis.

    I didn't realize there was a small fraction of time between Enron and Minute Maid that it was called Astros Field.
