  • I was kind of hoping that Fat Heads would put in to get it. Or Malley's so that they could have free chocolate day or some shit.

    The word "FREE" and Browns stadium will never go together

    Here is a link that cites multiple source and mentions a press conference tomorrow at 2p.m. or 11 a.m. for all left coasters.My link

    “The Wait Is Over, The Browns Will Be In The Playoffs This Year!"

  • I've found a couple of different references to it since the original post.

  • Good for Mr. Haslam. I'm all for anything he might do to increase revenues (except for raising ticket prices).

  • it's strange that a regional company would sponsor an NFL stadium.

    But the name isn't bad. At least its not O.Co Coliseum or the KFC Yum Center.

  • I will admit that I do get more excited than a 43 year old should at walking up and seeing "Cleveland Browns Stadium" on the side of the stadium. But at the same time, being as I only get there once a year (maybe twice this season) I don't think that moment will be diminished if it says First Energy Field or even Ghoolies Condom Shop...it's still the stadium where the Browns play and it will still be exciting regardless of who's name is on the side.

  • I don't care.

    1. Don't change the helmet.

    2. Start winning.

  • $20 million a year

    for 10 years

    and we can't go over the salary cap?????

    too bad this isn't baseball

    "And they don't really know even what they're talkin' about And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve."

  • At the end of the day, it's just the stadium. I know a lot of people were mad when Jacobs field changed to Progressive, but it never really bothered me. Honestly everyone knows that the Browns play there, doesn't really need to be called Cleveland Browns Stadium. Maybe with the money they make from FirstEnergy they can put some money into the stadium. Make it more modern, bigger video boards, etc.

    I find it funny that there will be two First Energy Stadiums in Northeast Ohio.

    I am a season ticket holder. My tickets have not gone up in 4 years. WIth this news of 1st energy paying big cash for nameing rights.

    I fully expect my season tickets to go up. Maybe not this year, but next year......................LOOK OUT

    Ticket prices may not go up but I promise you that First Energy's rates will spike up some!

    Not surprising. Why shouldn't Jimmy collect another couple million a year for nothing?

    Next up, Dear Season ticket holder. After holding the line on ticket prices for years, for the 2013 season there will be an across the board 10% price increase for your seats. Even with this increase, be aware Browns ticket prices are still below league average, and are still a tremendous value.

    Sure, just like your $7.50 beers are "good value". After having had to put up with crap football for over 10 years, you should be giving the long time ticket holders a season's worth of seats for FREE.

    I agree.

    Even though our prices are some of the lowest in the league, with the state of the economy in and around Cleveland still rocky, and we haven't been very good, I'd hope ticket prices don't get bumped for at least a couple of seasons.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.
