Don't get excited; the Jimmy-Buffett-beer-branded monstrosity hasn't suffered the same cruel wrecking-ball fate as the rickety but beloved Orange Bowl. It has, however, had its naming rights sold to Sun Life Financial, and will sport the Sun Life Stadium moniker for the next five years. This is an excellent development, partly because "Sun Life" sounds vastly more Floridian than "Land Shark" (which I never understood at all, because aren't there plenty of non-land-based sharks in Miami?), but mostly because, to reiterate, it's no longer a football stadium named after Jimmy Buffett's beer.
