Stadium Nicknames?

[clenz]

Pretty sure I heard it was going to be called Maxi Pad Field

I thought they were going to call it the Menstrual Pad

Maxi Pad Field a Menstration Stadium

Is this a college football forum, or a high school restroom wall?

For some reason, North Dakota fans like to refer to our home venues by the first name of an old person. Our hockey arena is "The Ralph", the basketball arena is "The Betty", and the football arena is "The Al", although it is not named after a person named Al, just short for Alerus Center. Just keeping the theme of other two facilities I guess.

Your hockey arena is fantastic. Been there 4 times. Saw the Sioux play Alaska Anchorage twice, saw one game against the Gophers (EPIC), and saw them play St. Cloud State my freshman year. Awesome place.

Hell on turf?

How about simply "the roos"?

Right now? THE FIELD, cause that's all it is!

But by 2013:



I hope it will become known as the New Mine Shaft. For some reason Halton Arena never inherited Belk Gym's nickname. More than likely it will get a nickname related more toward the actual name of the stadium. Either way, I'll be happy just to be there!

Tubby Raymond Field @ Delaware Stadium = The Tub
The Bob Carpenter Center (B-Ball/V-Ball) = The Bob

[DSUrocks07]

Delaware State's "Alumni Stadium" is better known as "Overflow Parking for Dover International Speedway".

We prefer to call it "the Fox House" because Hens will never be in there...

Plus it sounds like a nickname, better than "Affirmative Action Field".

The Dome.

One of the only stadiums where someone can ask "Where is that event going to be at?" for about 30 different kinds of events and the answer "The Dome" will tell everyone in the state of Iowa and parts of SD, MO, IL, MN, and NE exactly what is being talked about.


Hell the high school athletic association's playoff theme is "The Road to the Dome"

It's iconic in Iowa

Stop being so full of yourself, if you ask anybody, and I mean anybody in SD where the "Dome" is they will refer you to that giant septic tank at usd known as the DakotaDome.

Wrong...I grew up 30 minutes from SD and I spent MUCH time in SD and have many friends from SD...they all know what i mean when I say the Dome

Well of course they know what "YOU" mean when "YOU" say the "Dome". But I'd bet when they are talking amongst other South Dakotans, they refer to the "Dome" as the DakotaDome.

Woodward Field will be changed to Roos Field, which I have a good feeling will be referred to as either Big Red, The Red Zone, or The Lava Pit.

For the sake of simplicity, I hearby name the EWU field "The Quefe"

[ODUsmitty]

Additionally, for those that have been to Savannah State, that dump should be renamed "Fish Fry Field". Funny folks down there, guess it comes from too many years of inhaling that Low Country Swamp Gas.

[andy7171]

I like The Lava Pit.

[Appaholic]

"The Rock"

Hate that nickname...so cheesy....

[OL FU]

The Dungeon. Doesn't seem to have the kick that it did in year's past.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

I like The Lava Pit.

"The Red Carpet," "Big Red," and "The Red Zone" are the most popular names being bandied about amongst Eagle fans.

Although, I'm also a fan of "Devil's Playground."

Eventually the nickname will be a hybrid of whomever buys the naming rights. Philly's Lincoln Financial Field is know as the "Linc" or Chicago's US Cellular Field is called the "Cell". The naming rights may be too tempting to ignore. Maybe the "Ko", or the "Tam" or even the "Max". EWU could get quite the bidding war going for naming rights.

As long as they have Red turf it will always be the Pad

[tampajag]

Mumford Stadium is called the Bluff by some because the campus sits on Scott's Bluff overlooking the Mississippi Bluff. A former coach (Marino Casem) used the motto : "it's tough on the bluff" and it kind of stuck. For a while some rival fans called it Mudford because our field was a horrible mud pit for a few years.

[expandspanos]

I actually don't mind the red field- I think Boise's crazy blue is even harder to watch games on than this would be. it could work for EWU.

MCI/Verizon Centers nickname is "The Phonebooth"

Instead of the Eagle, I propose EWU generate extra revenue by placing this guy across the fifty:
