Granted, it’s better than… say… the League of Child Haters but is that cool? And how does it reflect on the community? A poll run last year by Florida’s St. Petersburg Times asking readers how they felt about the name-change came back overwhelmingly negative, with 58 percent of respondents saying they “hated it” and 37 percent saying they thought it was “pretty lame.”

Certainly, "1-800-Ask-Gary" won't look as cool on the back of a T-shirt beside a righteous band name as Madison Square Garden or the Royal Albert Hall.

Still, if a company is willing to pay for naming rights, and those funds help offset overhead costs that might otherwise be passed onto consumers through higher concession prices, does that make the name-change more palatable?

In that same newspaper article, County Commissioner Kevin White, who represents the district where the venue sits and is on the authority's board of directors, said the name change surprised him. "There could have been a much more appropriate name chosen for the amphitheater, one that's more reflective of the community or a major corporate sponsor within our community," White said.

Responded venue general manager David Harb: "It's an untraditional name, and that's okay. The truth be told, I'm not going to concern myself with it. I'm here to provide great entertainment."

I'm kind of on the fence about this (low prices=good, cheesy name=bad), and even though this particular example is a year old, it's likely this kind of thing will come up again.
