From Article on SB Nation 2/3/22.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have called Heinz Field home since the stadium opened in 2001 but could that name be changing in 2022.
Naming rights are up for renewal.
Heinz which is now Kraft Heinz will they renew?
Not in article but some of my thoughts below.
The Pittsburgh Penquins played at Consol Energy Center and now play at PPG Paints Arena (same place different name).
Rutgers now plays at Shi Stadium.
I have no idea if the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) would have any interest in naming rights but they do like to advertise.
UPMC advertisements appear at Heinz Field, PPG Paints Arena, PNC Park and on top of the former US Steel Building (tallest building in Pittsburgh) .
Other examples: Duquesne University Basketball Arena is called "UPMC Fieldhouse". Robert Morris University Basketball Arena is called "UPMC Events Center".
Why build a stadium when you can just name it (national recognition).
The Steelers playing at UPMC-Pitt Stadium would have a nice ring to it.
After all the Steelers did play at Pitt Stadium until 1970 when they moved to Three Rivers Stadium.
LOL!!!!
HAIL TO PITT!!!!
