The Miami Heat will no longer play at FTX Arena after a federal bankruptcy judge retroactively ended Miami-Dade County's naming rights agreement with the cryptocurrency company.

The two sides originally agreed to a 19-year, $135 million deal to change the name of the building from American Airlines Arena to FTX Arena in 2021. But following the collapse of FTX and the subsequent trials and hearings revolving around the company and former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, the team and the county requested to be let out of the arrangement in November.

...

That request was officially approved Wednesday, and all signage of FTX will be removed from the arena. The Heat announced on Friday that the arena will be called Miami-Dade Arena until a new naming-rights partner is found.

I mean... it's a temporary name until they find a new naming rights sponsor

the Superdome would go back to the Louisiana Superdome if they ever go an extended period without a naming right sponsor as I'm sure the SKC would go back to New Orleans Arena if they go an extended time without a naming rights sponsor

mostly true but blue bell park is straight fire, much like the cheese-it bowl.

I think the Heat should have been forced to keep it or pay the money back.

That's what a Chosen One looks like. The grip of an angel in those loins.

Makes sense. They’ve already played in Miami Arena once before.

Whomever had the brilliant idea to put an arena in Overtown ought to be strung up by the thumbs until dead.
