Knock...Knock WHO'S THERE? Landshark...er... Sun Life Stadium

From ProFootballTalk.nbcsports.com
As the Miami Dolphins prepare to host yet another Super Bowl, the venue is getting yet another new name.
Terry Lefton of SportsBusiness Daily reports that the team will announce on Wednesday that Sun Life Financial has purchased the naming rights to the stadium previously known as Joe Robbie Stadium, Pro Player Park, Pro Player Stadium, Dolphins Stadium, Dolphin Stadium, and Land Shark Stadium and Dan Marino Can't Win The Big One Place.
The five-year deal will pay out roughly $7.5 million per year.
The prior arrangement with Land Shark Lager was due to expire before the Pro Bowl and the Super Bowl; thus, the name of the place where the two prime postseason games will be played immediately will become Sun Life Stadium.

As it should be the most famous Land Shark remains the one from this classic SNL skit.
