On Monday morning, it was announced that the Pittsburgh Steelers will not be renewing their stadium naming rights contract with Heinz and therefore will be renaming Heinz Field.

It appears that Steelers fans won’t have to wait long to find out their stadium’s new moniker, either, as a report from 93.7 The Fan’s Andrew Fillipponi claims that Pittsburgh’s new home will be renamed Acrisure Stadium. Acrisure is a Michigan-based brokerage firm.

Breaking: The ketchup bottles are coming down. Heinz Field will be renamed Acrisure Stadium. After the Michigan-based insurance brokerage firm. An official announcement could come as soon as Tuesday.

Heinz Field opened in 2001 and currently serves as the home field for the Pittsburgh Steelers and University of Pittsburgh football teams. Following the name change and re-branding, things will likely look a little bit different, including the giant Heinz ketchup bottles that sit above the endzone on the open end of the stadium.

Similar to tons of New Yorkers and New Jerseyans still calling East Rutherford’s Metlife “Giants Stadium”, it seems that a majority of Pittsburgh Steelers fans will continue to call the iconic ground Heinz Field.
