Chiefs are renaming the field [nope - not in 2020 anyway]

GEHA Field.

Just thought a few people might be curious when it came across my feed.

MOAR $$$

Git dat coin!

Lame AF

I always liked having our stadiums not being desecrated with corporate sponsorship titles.

Guess that’s better than losing Arrowhead to Geha Stadium

Gross. Incestco Field at Mile High was always stupid, and if we have to start listening to Jim Nantz say GEHA Insurance at Arrowhead Stadium, **** that.

What's the benefit? Is that going to shave off the beer prices by 1 or 2 dollars? Reduce parking rates?

:LOL: your cute. You think fans will see a penny of that money? Nada chance. Profit for the team and the Hunt’s only.

It will always be Arrowhead. Noatyer what they add.

We have Mahomes. They should name after him.

They just won the Superbowl. Clark saw that people are willing to shell out $65 to park a car and I'm sure beers will go up to pay for the commemorative cups.

Plus, they'll have to recoup all the $ lost when there aren't any fans this years. JFC man, it's like you don't even care about the poor billionaires bottom dollar!

Get Pat to pay for it!

Chiefs subtly moving away from the "Arrowhead" name.

What are the odds they commission Tech to write a song that replaces the chop?

Do they really have to spell out four letters when the name is said? Can't just pronounce it "Gee-hah"? How unimaginative was the person who came up with that name.

Well, that's awfully stupid.

I'm surprised the Chiefs held out this long. That must've been a weighty check.

A name change for a the stadium was inevitable, I was hoping for Google stadium.

too bad it's not Hunt's Field

I'll continue calling it T-H-E Field.

I've always been so pleased that the Chiefs didn't do this sort of greedy garbage. This is pretty disappointing.

GHEY field at Arrowhead

Mahomes Field at the GEHA Arrowhead

I think this is more about the "Arrowhead" name than being greedy.

They aren't dropping Arrowhead from the name, it clearly states the stadium is still Arrowhead, the field itself is all that's sponsored.

Fingers crossed for Gates Field at Arrowhead Stadium and as part of the agreement, Jim Nance or any other TV announcer MUST say in a loud shrill voice "HI MAY I HELP YOU?!?!"

Grigs just rolled over in his grave

Now I'm starting to wonder if it's not a long-game move to change from Arrowhead and native american themes. You sell the field name under stated capitalistic motivations to break the ice, and then work up from there, and then at some point the Arrowhead name disappears under the weight of corporate branding with only the usual controversy that comes with any corporate sellout.

Yeah, I saw that. Still feels like this could be planting the seeds for a transition away from the name. We'll see.

It going to be arrowhead stadium. Played on geha field.

It says in article GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. Mahomes has a partnership with GEHA

So, we are as pathetic as Denver when they became Incestco...great

Oh. Well, if Mahomes is in on it, that's fine. I'm good with it.

Eh, I like additional cash for free agent bonuses.

Chiefs say this isn't happening, at least not right now.

Oh, excellent. So it's still officially Mahomes' Field at Arrowhead.

No one is gonna call it whatever Field. It will always be Arrowhead.

I would support FDF Field

COVID field at the Arrowhead

Name is geha than cum on a mustache

In the 1970s I think Whatever Field would have fit.

Arrowheads aren’t racist

It was a way for less developed cultures to kill enemies from long range

So will it now be Geha Field @ Arrowhead?

Kinda like Invesco Field @ Mile High?

The sweet nector of GEHA is a monster

Had to google GEHA. Some ****ing insurance company that I never heard of. And of course if this happens we'll be ridiculed by the universe, and rightly so. It's like a cross between Gay and Yeehaw.

****.

:facepalm:

GEHA (Government Employees Health Association) is a self-insured, not-for-profit association providing medical and dental plans to federal employees and retirees and their families.

That's the least rock and roll name I can think of. Bad idea. Really bad.

Makes absoultly no sense to me why a Federal "not for profit" would see buying naming rights to anything a good thing

Except it didn’t happen. OP is basing this off a Youtube video, Chiefs have already denied it.

Not happen, the field's naming rights wasn't for sale

BREAKING NEWS

via Twitter and stuffs

Chiefs to rename field "Joey for Chiefsplanet RR Mod Field at Arrowhead." Early reports are that Mahomes couldn't be happier.

I hate this! Arrowhead stadium is a staple. I want Clarks address because I'm revolting!

Edit " Ok it's all bullshit. Nevermind

Florio is a ****ing clown.

this is why we don't link to PFT...

"for the 2020 season..."

yeah that’s a huge ****ing blinking red flag right there. The rights start next season. PFT says they have actively been shopping the naming rights for 10 years to anyone and everyone who would listen.

So what are the remaining stadiums that don't sport a corporate sponsor anywhere in the name of the stadium?

Arrowhead Stadium
Soldier Field
Lambeau Field
Paul Brown Stadium

I think that's it. The Saints now play in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. The Bills sold off Ralph Wilson as well. The Broncos whored their identity to Incestco years ago, which is now something else I don't care about.

I guess technically the Ford FAMILY owns the Lions and thus bears the name of Ford Field, even though the name of the stadium is clearly through the sponsorship of the car company and not the family connected to both interests.

We're definitely part of a dying breed, and it would be nice if we didn't have to end that distinction this soon. That's assuming we eventually go to a _______ Field at Arrowhead Stadium bullshit name after 2020.

Mahomes has a sponsorship with GEHA. Basically this is Pats decision

You go all these years and settle on ****ing GEHA...Clark goes **** no

Patrick Mahomes II Field at Arrowhead Stadium has a nice ring to it.

Pat should have held out for WhattaBurger Field.

The concession stands could sell 2 burgers.

"The Nothing Burger ( 0 ) "

" The Fourty Burger (40)

Just a matter of time. Sort of a bummer but that is the modern game.

Who gives a ****? The only thing that matters is the stadium and team are in the KCMO area. If that changes ill be pissing and moaning with the rest of y'all miserable pussy farts.

This is fair.

It's Arrowhead Stadium.

Not Nabisco Field at Arrowhead.
Not Arrowhead Stadium presented by Pepsi.
Not TheGeneral.com Stadium.

It's Arrowhead Stadium and I'm not calling it anything else.
Period.

LMAO

Good catch. Timing just feels odd to me. That’s all.

Black lives matter field at arrowhead stadium

Actually the Bills were the first team to do the naming rights. The name before Ralph Wilson was Rich Stadium. That was Rich Chicken who bought that in the 70s.

Do the Chiefs own the naming rights to the stadium? I would think that belongs to Jackson County.

Never really thought of it this way thats interesting.

That whole "Invesco Field at Mile High" thing started when they built the new stadium. Who renamed the baseball stadium, the Royals or Jackson County? I'm pretty sure it was Jackson County.
