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

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.

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

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

Arrowheads aren’t racist

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