Have the Celtics Play in Your "House"


Your Name Here

Bank of America bought Fleet Bank. "So what?", you ask. Well, Fleet Bank owned the naming rights to Boston's Fleet Center, home of the Boston Celtics and Boston Bruins (if they ever play hockey again). Bank of America has no need to advertise Fleet's name anymore so the naming rights are up for grabs. What's that you say again? You don't have an extra $25 Million dollars to purchase naming rights to the Fleet Center. No problem.

Right now on ebay the Fleet Center is auctioning off the rights to have the Fleet Center named after you for one event day. Your name on the program, a parking space, all phone recordings state that the event is to be played at "Boston's Gadget Guy Center" and press releases too (I bet they still make you pay $5.00 for a hot dog, though).

Lots of dates available, proceeds to charity, current bids are less then $2,000. Awesome! I just wonder how many people in Massachusets are bidding to be the first to name the Center the "Yankees Suck Center". Those crazy Bostonites. Click post title to go right to the ebay page. (Thanks Rob)
