Pepsi Center is now Ball Arena

[Avsboy]

I prefer it to playing at the "Climate Pledge"

The Ball Arena? You gotta be f***ing kidding me?

 

[The Merchant]

Ball Arena is filled to capacity boys. Can't you feel the tension? This place feels like it's about to explode.

Extremely underrated post

Does this mean we’re stealing the whiteout from Winnipeg?

Everyone should wear blue until the Avalanche win.

The positive out of that situation is that every poster upped their posting game. Solid thread.

I can’t tell if you’re serious? Is this really a hill you’re willing to die on? I’m genuinely curious if you’re joking or actually triggered by this.

I’m not going to forgo buying a Makar jersey due to the corporate naming of a building

I'm giving up being an Avs fan because of this. I can't bear the thought of the Avs playing in a place called the Ball. Im done..

See you in Hawks forum

When you get it...

Is this like the big baller brand ball?

I don't know if that's quite worth a "when you get it".

Another great angle for puns though, which is appreciated...

Please nickname it The Nut House.

Signed,

Everyone everywhere

Now or never, time to sign Tyler Bozak.

This has to be a troll.

Balls to the walls eh?

No, balls on the table.

Lol I love this. The Balls jokes will be great.

Lol I wish I could like this more than once.

I personally think this is a good change. Once you all get used to it I think you'll agree.

First off, it seems to be a much easier company to support and like than a soulless giant like Pepsi. This is an actual local Colorado company with deep roots and history in the state.

Second, if you want to still call it The Can, go right ahead since the new sponsor literally makes cans.

Third, the possibilities for humor are nearly limitless, and hockey is supposed to be fun.

On a side note, I think The Can nickname should actually die and the new nickname should be the Ball Pit.

Blue Ball Arena...makes sense.

 

[MarkT]

Welcome to the new home of the Avs!

 

[UncleRisto]

I just hope we still had Benoit and New Balls.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Just add Corp. into the name and it would sound much better. Ball Corp. Arena > Ball Arena.

 

[McMetal]

I nominate "Ballosseum" as the new nickname.
