The field is named after a sponsor and the stadium is named Mile High. The stadium's primary tenant is the Denver Broncos of the National Football League (NFL). The stadium opened in 2001 to replace Mile High Stadium. The stadium was largely paid for by taxpayers in the Denver metropolitan area and the property is owned by a special taxing district.〔http://www.mfsd.com/aboutus.html〕 More controversially, Invesco paid $120 million for the original naming rights, before Sports Authority secured the naming rights on August 16, 2011. ==Naming rights controversy== Many fans opposed a corporate name and wished to retain the previous venue's name, "Mile High Stadium". ''The Denver Post'' initially refused to use the Invesco label and referred to it as Mile High stadium for several years before changing their policy and adding Invesco to articles. On August 16, 2011, The Metropolitan Stadium District announced Invesco would immediately transfer the naming rights to Englewood, Colorado-based Sports Authority in a 25-year agreement worth $6 million per year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sports Authority Field at Mile High」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
