Is there ever going to be an actual corporate sponsorship for the entire stadium?

The troughs should be sponsored by drain-o.
I hope not. Unless it's for an absurd amount of money and for a really cool company that retains "Folsom Field" and just adds "at ______ Stadium".

I’m down to the name stadium after the person that ousts Lary Scott.
It will never be in that order. Every sponsor will want to be first, but I imagine "Folsom Field" being in the name is a requirement for the AD.
That's what I would suspect would be the case if it happened. I think it needs to happen at some point. The other sponsorships are small potatoes compared to that, although I would hope RG is waiting until CU has sustained some kind of success on the field in order to maybe get a larger deal.

As others said I will be livid if they ever change the name from Folsom. You want to slap some corporate sponsorship? Whatever just add Folsom field to it. But if they remove Folsom is idiocy at the highest level. Keep the heritage and history, don’t ruin it. I don’t want the KFC yum center.
The name "Folsom Field" presents a unique challenge there. UW has "Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium" but how on earth do you pull off having the sponsor first when your stadium is already called "field"?
"Southwest Airlines Stadium containing Folsom Field"?
"Southwest Airlines Stadium featuring Folsom Field"?
"Southwest Airlines Stadium which includes Folsom Field"?
Bank of the West Stadium at Folsom Field.
Frontier Airlines Stadium at Folsom Field.
Just seems odd to me to have larger object listed as being "at" the smaller object
There's a solid dick joke in here.
Maybe a little, I guess. It is done elsewhere though.
Oregon State's baseball stadium is named this way, Saskatchewan Roughrider's stadium is named this way, so is Prairie View A&M, Army's baseball stadium, etc.

Seems like a rock hard opportunity, but I can’t pull one out.
Yeah, keep Folsom in the name, but it's time to start getting revenue for doing nothing. UW and Alaska Airlines have a 10 year, $41m deal. No, we wouldn't garner a deal of that size, but 10 year, $25m? 5 year, $15m? It's a free $2-$3m/year going to the AD.

How do you know this?! Pretty obscure sports fact.
red bulls-eye in the trough with herbie husker urinal cakes in the center of each bulls-eye. and a sign above the trough... "Achieve what you emphasize. Shoot Straight. Sponsored by AllBuffs."
Its called Google.

This is great and all, but do we know how much of the sponsorship revenue is earmarked to cure cancer?

Thinking outside the box a little (is that still a valid phrase?), how about seeing if Folsom State Prison out in California -- the one Johnny Cash used to sing about -- would be interested in buying the naming rights. Folsom State Prison Field would keep the "Folsom" name without adding a lot of extra of's in's or at's and everyone wins.

Looks like a good match. Get the sponsorship, keep the name, and get some swimsuit models tailgating. Win, win win.
