By now you have probably heard that our younger brethren and sistren over on North Avenue have reached a blockbuster deal with auto maker Hyundai to sponsor their field.
Under the pact announced earlier this week, Hyundai will pay Georgia Tech around $55 million over 20 years for naming rights to the field formerly known as Grant Field. The Stadium in which the field is situated will remain Bobby Dodd Stadium. I’ve gotten a good chuckle out of that on eight to ten separate occasions since the deal was announced. It will take me awhile to explain, but stay with me.
