"Naming" the OCS
Assuming it gets some long, clunky corporate name, what are we, the fans, actually going to call the place?
Mrs. Smaug is already calling it "The Lair".

Depends on the actual name, maybe it'll be something prone to shortening

I thought about that as well, like minds think alike
Long nickname might be Dragon's Lair but The Lair for short

RE: "Naming" the OCS
"The Lair" sounds cool.
I think it'd be awesome if the stadium had a medieval look to it...like a castle.
It may sound odd when thinking of a stadium, but it would definitely be a talking point for anyone visiting "The Lair".

Knights who slay Dragons live in Castles. Dragons live in caves. Putting a medieval look on UCF's stadium would make sense.

You're right. Dragons aren't associated with medieval times or castles at all.
There has never been any text or visual imagery in regards to dragons and castles.
Such a silly idea.
I suppose I should've come up with something else...
Like gold turf, right?

Get your check books out. We're naming that sucker.
Can you imagine the increase in nuttiness around here if there was that kind of exposure.
I bet they'll have sponsorship opportunities for smaller things like concession stands, gates, etc....
