Credit union buys naming rights for Aloha Stadium field

HONOLULU (AP) - The field at Aloha Stadium has been renamed after a credit union purchased a three-year deal for the naming rights.

The field is now officially the Hawaiian Tel Federal Credit Union Field at Aloha Stadium. The credit union will pay $275,000 per year as part of the agreement.

That price is much lower than the $2.5 million Hawaii Airlines paid over the course of its five-year naming rights deal that expired in December.

Officials have cited declining attendance at UH games as a factor in the drop, The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported.

redeveloped into some sort of mega-development soon enough anyway. there is a move afoot to tear down the stadium and
build a new one. terrible idea to fleece taxpayers yet again

If she were still alive, she' due heartbroken. It'll always be Aloha Stadium to me. Just like Macy's will always be Liberty House!
