Bud Bowl

June

The biggest question about the new stadium has finally been answered. Never mind possible cost overruns or whether the Giants have a chance at another ring—Giants and Jets fans will be drinking Budweiser as they watch it unfold at the new stadium at the Meadowlands. Anheuser-Busch joins MetLife as one of four major sponsors of the new stadium for the Jets and Giants, the construction of which fans can enjoy all season long. (When I was out there to cover the Giants this spring, I had the fun of finding where the ramp for the northbound New Jersey Turnpike was—a new path each time!)

The Bud sponsorship is reportedly worth $10-$15 million, and the fifth and final sponsor will pay $20 million for a package including naming rights. Oh, the suspense!

Can’t wait for the naming. Why is it only somewhere between 20-25 mil. shouldn’t it cost closer to 35-40? It is for two teams. Maybe I’m just figuring it’s for more years, How many years is the naming for? Thanks

I can’t wait for the new stadium. Right now though I am more worried about Ahmed Bradshaw being in jail.
