New Arena for the Phoenix Suns: Think About the Tradition First
Phoenix Mayor, Greg Stanton, is reportedly planning to endorse a plan for a new, shared stadium for the Phoenix Suns and the Phoenix Coyotes – a taxpayer-funded arena.
I’m sure Robert Sarver wouldn’t object to that.
He has had a clear interest in a new stadium for years, despite there still being 5 years left on the Phoenix Suns’ lease on America West Arena (sorry, US Airways Center…I mean Talking Stick Resort Arena – what a terrible name).
As far back as 2014 Robert Sarver has talked openly about the need for the Phoenix Suns to have a new stadium. He is not interested in another renovation of America West Arena (I’m not giving up that name!).
