espn.go.com— Here is the list. I think the one that stands out has to be Reliant Energy paying 10 Million to name the Houston Texans Stadium. Definitely some surprising numbers on there and some really horrible names.

The irony is how hard corporations work to make themselves household words, but then go lawsuit-crazy when they succeed and their names are used generically. There's no pleasing some people.
Thats what I was talking about, though. Tweeter is a business name, not the name of the area or locale. It may be a local business, but there isn't a town or district called Tweeter.
