Sports Authority, no more. Almost.
Monday, crews from Ad Light Group, a Denver-based sign company, began to disconnect the electrical wires behind the Sports Authority signs scattered around the Broncos facility. The process, while laborious, is expected to be completed within the next week or so, with the sign on the south side of the stadium coming down first.
The Broncos have yet to secure a new naming rights partner, but announced last week that they planned to remove the signs of the defunct company in the meantime. Sports Authority filed for bankruptcy in 2016 and the Broncos later assumed the remainder of Metropolitan Football Stadium District’s naming rights contract, worth about $20 million over five years.
