Apparently, there will be no reorganization from bankruptcy. There may be bargains to be found in the next few weeks.
You could also have your name on a large stadium in Denver if interested.

Maybe TDale will buy the naming rights at the stadium. Maybe he can even convince the team owner/NFL to change the team name to the Denver Newts.
Mike lives nearby - how about the Denver Blue Bears?
MsD lives in the area as well - the Denver Dolittles?
Of course, there's always the possibility they could become the Denver Lame Beavers...

Mile High Stadium is now more appropriate than ever!

Before there was Boaty McBoatface:
The Boston Garden was replaced in 1995 by a building that changed names before the Celtics or Bruins ever played a game there. When the good people of the Hub broke ground, the building now named the TD Banknorth Garden was the Shawmut Center. But before the arena even opened, Fleet Bank bought up Shawmut Bank and slapped "Fleet Center" on the building. Unfortunately, just a year later, Fleet was bought up by Bank of America. (Remember when banks bought banks and the government didn't have to buy banks?) Bank of America is HQ'd in Charlotte, so a Boston arena wouldn't do for namesake purposes. So the arena owners bought the naming rights back, which they took to auction. It was messy. There was once a two-day period in which "Yankees Suck Stadium" was the legal name.

They closed our store several months ago. Didn't see any notice, just went by one day and it was closed...all signage removed, no super clearance sales.

I thought Mitt Romney was a major investor? Oh well he'll probably make out OK.

When Mtngrl and I pass by The Sports Authority Mile High Stadium in Denver, we give it other names. A couple of our favorites are Viagra Stadium and Victoria's Secret Stadium

So I was in there Sunday (Had a $11 award due to expire). Word is that the sales will start on the 25th, but no one knows yet exactly what the mark downs will be, though firearms will only be 10%.

There may be bargains to be found in the next few weeks. Thanks for this post! I happened to be at the mall on Friday and remembered this post. I stopped by and got 70% off on some clothing, including a new rain jacket (which I desperately needed). My friend is starting his own clothing printing business, and he hoarded the clothing/display racks. He was like a kid at Christmas!

Prices are not that great so far. I picked a discounted item yesterday and today found the same item 27% cheaper (undiscounted) at Modell's, which is not exactly known for great prices.
