Oh good, this thread is turning into a political debate. That's EXACTLY what we need.

I heard that Billy Idol is making a $300 million donation since we have made the song Mony Mony the most popular song in the sports industry.


Punters are people too!!

No matter if it was JT or not, to have him come sing Mony Mony at the dedication would kick some ass!

I’ve always thought it would be great to have him perform at halftime of Cat-Griz.

Very cool. I love the rationale for this donation.

If it is Blank donating, I'd be shocked if our stadium isn't renamed "Arthur Blank Stadium". Wouldn't even be the first one in the Big Sky named after someone who donated (UM, Cal Poly, EWU, Weber, NoCo)

Under Armour Bobcat Stadium has a nice ring to it.
If someone gives us 250 million. I don't care if their last name is Hairy Nuts. I'm taking the loot. Bobcat Hair Nuts stadium. Perfect.
Great, and seeing as MSU is an Agricultural Institution, may I suggest Hairy Bovine Scrotum Stadium.

Sure, they make a big deal out of that donation and nothing about the $50 I gave.

The biggest problem with the YC is that it destroyed some of the most pristine elk habitat in the lower 48, and that will never come back. I don’t like the YC anymore than the next person and wish those people would stay the hell out of Montana, but I don’t see a problem with taking their money if it benefits the football program.

If it's not $1 billion I don't want it. Gotta have principles.

There used to be a professional sports venue named the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA. They let the naming rights go to another entity. I am not aware of another stadium currently carrying the Home Depot name. I would be comfortable with a Home Depot Stadium in Bozeman.

There’s going to be some disappointed people here when the new big gift ends up being some new parking blocks for the newly paved parking lots.

Maybe they could be painted orange though and be Home Depot parking blocks? Just to keep with the speculative nature of this thread…
