Arrowhead no more: home of NHL’s Anaheim Ducks to get new name
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - The home of the NHL’s Anaheim Ducks is getting a new name.Arrowhead Pond will become Honda Center in October, the first name change in the arena’s 13-year history. Arrowhead Water’s naming rights agreement expires in September.
The deal was announced Wednesday, with the arena’s management company saying more details would be provided in October.
The building hosts other sporting events, concerts and special events
Wow, ok Honda now sponsors hockey — Weird.
When you think of a pond… what comes to mind? Ducks right… Pond and Ducks go together like peanut butter and jelly. Although i understand the reason why the name i dont agree. Everyone knows the arrowhead pond, but the honda center?
Hey Leslie,
Seriously. It’s very strange. Being that I was there when it opened and I believe I went to at least one if not many ducks games per year it seems foreign to think of it anything other than the Pond.
Oh well.
