    300 million over 30 years, at the time of the signing sounded good to me. Not my money (sorta).

    I'm pretty sure most people are still gonna just call it Reliant. Either way, it's just one corporate name for another. People hated the Minute Maid name change as well, but now people have gotten used to it. Anything is better than Smoothie King Arena or whatever they call it in New Orleans.

    Part of, Reliant itself split into several pieces due to merchant energy crash and wasn't very fiscally well off in the early '00s.

    The final reminder of my first energy scheduling and trading job will die with the renaming of the stadium.

    So glad we hired McKinzie to help us be more like Enron. They succeeded.
