I really hope they at least go with something decent but I'm sure everyone will be pissed off with the new name.

Budweiser should put up the money and we can call it BC Bud Place :fullofwin:

Pho Bich Nga Stadium

^ man I miss that place.

would be dope if BC place gets this system from bud:


have only seen it used with bud products, so i'm asuming it's there thing, not sure if it's common place in stadiums or not though

Telus world of sports

lol shit was awsome


they changed the name now...havent bother checking it out

its carvasvs or w.e, place fucking sucks lol

^^ I remember watching CTV few nights ago, talking about that machine that would fillup beer. Took the inventors 3 years to perfect the machine and finally some corporation purchased their product.

mmmmm...beer! hahahah...

With so many name changes, its gonna be hard to keep up, I'm gonna call it BC Place to be easier.

Latex Condome!!

Gucci Place



burrrr

I don't care what it's called, to me it will always be BC Place.

Just like I don't call Science World, the Telus World of Science or GM Place, Rogers Arena.

first thing came to my mind.

to me, science world is still science world, GM Place is still GM Place, and BC Place will always be BC Place

TWO MEN ENTER, ONE MAN LEAVES!

when the new roof is done it should be called Faildome

agreed that Science World will always be known as Science World and BC Place should always be BC Place.

GM Place is different tho. that was a corporate name. GM Place/Rogers Arena never had its own name without a corporate sponsorship. its not like its now Rogers GM Place. It will eventually be known as Rogers Arena (such a shitty name), it will just take time for it to sink in.

the Arena in Kelowna was originally Skyreach Place until Skyreach went under and it changed to Prospera Place. it took 2 or 3 years but eventually Prospera stuck in everyones minds.

Terry Fox Stadium

:troll:

PleaseDontRainCauseTheDomeDoesntSupportWater Place!


lol did anyone else read the article about this issue? has it been resolve.. i read that when the dome is open and it starts to rain, water would collect in the gap while it closes and it would screw up the dome...

They just cant open or close it in heavy rains. It cant be in motion with the heavy rains since the fabric folds as it closes, the folds catch water while they are exposed before they are stretched open or tucked away closed. Its kind of stupid they didnt plan it ahead with a half billion dollar roof but its not as big of a deal as everyone is making it out to be its not like the roof will collapse in the rain if its open or closed. I wouldnt be surprized of other retractable roofs have weather limitations aswell.

The roof only takes 20 minutes to open or close, unlike the hour it takes many other retractable roofs. They can open or close it if there is weather rolling in. Its not like they will get caught offguard every day.

If its open and a freak rainstorm rolls thru, the players on the field get to play in the rain like any open stadium, except the fans in the seats will be protected at all times.

Something to do with Telus or Bell..

this is vancouver, weather reports are usually accurate here... Sunny 1minute, Raining the next... and since it rains a lot here, they should have been smarter...

Im just hoping to god that they dont give it some native bullshit name that no one can pronounce

isnt Budweiser the major sponsor? its probably gonna be in the name one way or another

"BC Bud" is what im hearing lol

In today's 24 Hours paper, there was an article about Labatt's agreement with BC Place that said "draught beer may be dispensed using bottom-up technology"...

So keep your fingers crossed! :)

If it does happen,just continue to call it BC place,everyone will know what you are talking about.

If it does get renamed to some unpronounceable native name,everyone will still call it BC place anyways,cause no one can pronounce the new name.
