'PayJoe Stadium': Social media reactions to name change of Bengals' home
With Tuesday's news of the name change of the home of the Bengals from Paul Brown Stadium to Paycor Stadium, opinions were offered on social media, and some just noted that it will take some getting used to.
The naming rights announcement is the first for the stadium since the Brown family paid $5 million when it opened in 2000 to name it after team founder Paul.

Father—
At this morning’s muster it was announced Fort Paul Brown shall be renamed Fort Paycor. These decisions are made above my pay grade. My focus is to return to full strength down an appendix. I test fired my sidearm without mishap yesterday. I believe I’m nearly ready.
