Ballpark Name Domain Wrap-Up
April 4, 2008 11:42 AM
At the risk of beating this one to death, here's the complete list of domains that the Twins have registered, which I culled from the Fox9 news story (the most pertinent ones are bolded). The video of the story is available above.

Here's more info on each of the companies:
Allianz
Great River Energy
Land O' Lakes
What's most interesting is the utter lack of any of the companies we've been speculating the most about.
Frankly, when I heard Land O' Lakes Field I said to myself, "That's the one. It's perfect." Whether the dollars will line up behind it is a completely different question.
We can hope.

Northern Lights Field would be nice, but what company is that? The casino?
Allianz or anything with Energy in the title would be awful.

Hmmm. Seems to be a few generic names.
Too bad the Great Northern Railway isn't still around, that would be a good name. (see link)
I always liked the way the old LA lakers arena sounded - the Great Western Forum - a lot of people didn't realize that it was a corporate name, named after Great Western Savings and Loan.

I think Allianz Field or Allianz Park would work well.

The more I think about it, the better I like "Northern Lights Yard"

I like Northern Lights Park/ Yard too, cuz then the colored led lights in the canopy could make the HERC Plant steam look like the Northern Lights during a night game!

One exception that I wouldn't mind as far as music, old 1920's jazz swing. Baseball and swing kind of go hand in hand IMO.
