Toronto Rogers Centre Renovations | ?m | ?s | Toronto Blue Jays | Populous

I think people can call it whatever they want. Legally though, it's still known as the Rogers Centre...and that's unlikely to change until The Dome gets a different owner.
 
I have a hard time beliving that outside of pelople on forms like this, facebook and redit , most of the time they just come acroiss as dumb when they make satments like that saying that it's caslled the Skydome and eveyone in Toronto calls it that or you aren't from Tornto. Itr';s time to move on and acept that trhe name changed.


You can have a hard time believing whatever you want, but it's the reality.
 
All things considered, we're lucky to have a name that's non offensive like Rogers Centre. Leaving what you think of Roger's aside, of course.

Some of the names of other sports stadiums are truly abhorrent. Like 'I can't believe this is real' level of bad.
  1. KFC Yum! Arena
  2. University of Phoenix Stadium
  3. Northeast Delta Dental Stadium
  4. Sleep Train Arena
  5. Tony Macaroni Arena
  6. Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre
  7. Smoothie King Center
  8. Minute Maid Park
  9. Cheaper Insurance Direct Stadium
  10. Whataburger Field

and a some others I found that I just have to share.
  • Crypto.com Arena
  • Guaranteed Rate Field
  • Rocket Mortgage Field House
  • Taco Bell Arena
  • Little Caesars Arena
  • Jobing.com Arena
  • Talking Stick Resort Arena
  • Papa John's Cardinal Stadium
  • PSINet Stadium
  • Bright House Networks Stadium
  • Mend- A-Hose Jungle
  • Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium
At least with Rogers, it barely sounds like it's a business that has sponsored the name. Imagine it was called Pizza Pizza Field or CapitalDirect.ca Centre. Even Scotiabank Arena is arguably a worse name than Roger Centre when you think about it.

They could name it the BJ Centre?

That's another thing I like about some of the original stadiums, like Fenway Park and Yankee Stadium will never sell out to a corporation. It's funny because Wrigley Field was the first one to be corporately named, but I guess because of the history of it, it just doesn't sound cheesy like so many other corporate named stadiums/arenas.

They should change it to Rogers Field, at least that sounds like a ballpark name.

Toyota Stadium in Frisco, TX was formerly named Pizza Hut Park!

What a cheesy name.

I would not be surprised if there is (or there will be) a sports venue named after Domino's because that too would be a cheesy name.

I don't know anyone who calls it the Rogers Centre.
I can say the same thing I don't know anyone that calls it Skydome anymore and a lot of people in my family knew it as both. No mater what you call it the name is going to stay tbe Rogers centrte so why not just change saying it, insted of cslling it something else.
 
You can have a hard time believing whatever you want, but it's the reality.
nope the ppel who isnsit on calling it SKydiome do it's the Rofgers Center no matyer waht youi want to call it so why not switch. I don't relly seea reason to hold on to the name of anyomre.
