With all the debate around the ABSA sponsership of Kings Park/ABSA Stadium, I thought that it may be interesting to see how others feel about naming rights. I'm not a fan, but some stadium's names are harder to agree on than others.

I decided to post a list of stadiums, and ask what other's call them. So, what do you guys call:

the stadium which hosted the 2010 FIFA World Cup final?
the Goldend Lions and Lions home stadium?
the FS Cheetahs and Cheetahs home stadium?
the cricket ground in Bloemfontein?
the cricket ground in Durban?
the stadium which Arsenal currently play in?
the stadium which the Sprinboks will play Ireland in?
the large multipurpose indoor venue in Joburg (couldn't think of a better way to phrase this without using part of it's name)

For bonus points, tell me just what you would call this stadium: Stadium which has had way too many names

That other stadium is where the Miami Dolphins used to play, think they moved. That is also the stadium in Ace Ventura.
