Etihad to be renamed Marvel Stadium

[Demonland 73,266]

Our fortress is to be renamed to Marvel Stadium after Disney bought the rights for the next 8 years.

Didnt realize it was still April 1st.

Imagine naming a stadium after some lame American comic book thingy where all the movies are flooded with horrible looking CGI and no plot.

Well done Gil.  Moron.

DC would have been better.  Bathe the whole stadium in green and re name it the Green Lantern!

Would've preferred Don't Expect A Good Seat Stadium.

Meh.  It will always be Docklands to me.

I prefer the MCG!

Sadly renaming the soulless concrete box will not make it any more welcoming, nor the viewing any better.  Can’t polish a turd.

Any chance the MCG will ever sell naming rights?

I agree with this. Kids will love this. Disney, Marvel and the AFL have a great opportunity from an entertainment perspective.

How appropriate

The stadium is named after the people who brought you Mickey Mouse

Self descript of the organisation that inhabits the Stadium and runs this competition

Ohh the irony.

Ewwww DC is crud.

I want to see the roof painted like Cap. Americas shield, better have tony stark like technology inside and if your team is doing shitty you should be able to unleash a Hulk on your team!

And if people are acting like wankérs then a stuffed toy unicorn drops into their lap.

yep.. agree... the frequent name changes have made sure that it is forever known as Docklands.

Hell.. I still think you get off at Spencer Street Station

As an aside I was reading yesterday that Etihad (the airline) is not sailing as well as it once was with route reductions and a removal of the large government subsidy it receives from the Abu Dhabi government.

Makes sense that they have stopped the sponsorship...

I've heard they're negotiating with McDonalds to rename it the McG.

Seriously? Like he had a choice of movie studios or franchises to choose from? How, exactly, do you think these deals get done?
