… deal to name its stadium after a company that runs prisons.
Was a prison company our first choice? No. But let’s face it, for a $6 million donation we probably would have sold the stadium naming rights to Massengill and called the stadium The Douche Dome.
We were desperate. We built a $70 million facility that’s nearly empty year-round, even during home football games, and for two years, nobody was biting on the naming rights.

$6M for naming rights for a $70M stadium? If you’ve already set your probity aside, you might as well get your money’s worth. But wait, what something is worth is what someone is willing to pay for it. Very ugly on so many levels.
