Prompt 1 - The new arena in Winnipeg is going to be called The Winnipeg Aurora Palace (or, the WAP for short, wait, no, I don't think we can call it that). The new arena in Winnipeg is going to be called Stardust Place, named after our very adorable mascot. The entire arena is plastered with giant paintings of Stardust, the cute little bear. Outside, leading up to the main entrance, are a bunch of giant sculptures of Stardust that fans can take their pictures with. The arena is located in a very central place (i have no idea what that is, I've never actually been to Winnipeg, I just assume there's some kind of central location even if we have to demolish a few buildings to put the arena there). The arena district will include a lot of attractions, like smaller ice rinks for kids and local leagues, as well as some very nice restaurants with Aurora-themed meals.

We are thrilled to have the support of the local taxpayers of Minneapolis, Minnesota, in funding our new ice hockey arena for the Minnesota Monarchs. As for the name of the arena, we envision it being called "Crown Ice Arena," symbolizing the Monarchs' regal presence in the city and paying homage to the team's history. The name reflects both the strength and prestige associated with the Monarchs and the exciting sport of ice hockey. In terms of the location, we propose constructing the Crown Ice Arena in the heart of downtown Minneapolis. By placing the arena in a central location, we aim to maximize accessibility for fans and create a vibrant sports district. The arena will be surrounded by various amenities, including restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues, creating a bustling atmosphere on game days and fostering a sense of community among fans. Beyond game days, the Arena district will serve as a year-round destination for residents and visitors alike. It will host community events, concerts, and other sporting competitions, bringing people together and enhancing the city's cultural landscape. Additionally, the district will incorporate green spaces and pedestrian-friendly areas, allowing for outdoor activities and creating an inviting environment for fans and families. Overall, the Crown Ice Arena and its surrounding district will become a symbol of pride for the city of Minneapolis, attracting visitors, boosting local businesses, and fostering a love for ice hockey in the community.

So, the Seattle Argonauts currently play at Climate Pledge Arena. Ideally, they can retain this arena naming rights with The Climate Pledge, as that is probably one of the better sponsors that Vaseline Podcalzone can think of. It is a great initiative and a great cause. Perhaps something akin to Climate Pledge Garden or Climate Pledge Center.

The stadium district will probably be about the same as before. The ownership group did take up a bit more land to develop some more amenities. That being said, the stadium district here in Seattle already features several exciting entertainment options, notably that there is another professional baseball team that plays just a block away from the current grounds of the Climate Pledge Arena (in case I did not bring it up yet, the new arena here in Seattle will be based on the grounds of the current arena). Perhaps some housing developments would be something that the ownership group would build towards.

My new stadium is going to be in London, England, well, more specifically, Tottenham which is a part of England. I think that England is really an untapped market where hockey could definitely be a fun place to play. I think football has started to go in there, so why not try hockey and see how good it can be there. I do think with a population as big as London has, there is so many people that would be intrigued. Plus, you are also a train ride to Paris, so there are also probably hockey fans in France. What will the arena be called? It is going to be called the Flying Squirrel arenas. Everyone knows that Tottenham is known for their squirrels, especially the red squirrels and flying squirrels, so that is why they would be sponsoring the arena. We would absolutely have to find different sponsors, but before that, it is going to be called that. Whomever will give us the most money and is not a terrible organization, that will be the sponsor.

The new arena needs to be transit-accessible, so we're putting it right downtown, located near many busy mass transit lines. There will be plenty of shops and restaurants nearby, which does cut down on concession sales...but does help the local economy significantly more. There's even going to be a special deal with a nearby Denny's for shutouts! We'll also be swinging deals with some of these nearby establishments for game day discounts if you have a ticket to the game, giving more incentive to support the arena district, not just the arena.

As for name, I do not believe in corporate names, I would be all for retaining the name Tony Pepperoni Dome - but make it the Tony Pepperoni Dome II or something. You wouldn't name a cathedral after some business sponsor, why do it with your sport venue? There's a reason they're named St. Luke's or whatever and not the IBM Church of St. Luke.

PLAYER PROMPT - Amenities Wish-list
Shnopple cares about what the stadium has for amenities. Shnopple expects to see a play place for younger kids, free water fountains, and a sensory room are all musts. The sensory room must have fidget toys and soft chairs for those who need them. Shnopple also wants the stadium to be inclusive to everyone. Shnopple would be surprised in a bad way if the stadium isn't very inclusive. Shnopple would not be happy with a team that is not inclusive. Shnopple would want a decked-out weight room so him and his team can all work out whenever they want to. Shnopple would like everyone to have free water because he knows how annoying and bad it can be to be without water. Shnopple wants the film room to have soft relaxing chairs so they can relax and focus. Shnopple may be a needy guy, but he sure has his good reasons for these things.

The newest hockey arena for the Chicago Syndicate should definitely be called Club Lucky, after the connections a few team members and ownership have with the current mob affiliations deep in Chicago. Looking over the river in the city would make for some great views, but Melvin would never want to interrupts anyone view of nature in that way. So finding a place where they can have enough parking within the city, but also be able to have some outdoor rinks during the winter time would be important. Giving back to the public in this way too, making sure that there are free public rinks near the arena would be important to Melvin and the whole Syndicate organization. While there would probably be some logistical nightmares surrounding maintaining something like that, Melvin knows that the other members of the Syndicate leadership would work hard to accomplish this, especially when it offers such benefits for the community.

PLAYER PROMPT - Written

Well first of all, Moneyball was right, if I'm paying for drinks at the stadium as a player, I'm walking in free agency. Doesn't matter how nice the city is, how good the team is, if the owner is pinching pennies at that level, I'm out the door. The film room needs to have some comfy seats too. Going over game tape is crucial and also the worst part of playing professional hockey. No one cares, everyone is disinterested. It's frustrating to re-watch our failures, so at the very least there could be some decent back support going on in there. Another thing would be decent faucets in the showers. Nothing worse than scalding yourself because you didn't use a protractor to measure the angle you turned the thing to. Team chefs are always top notch, so maybe a nice kitchen area for them would be nice to see. Anything to see the unsung heroes' jobs get a little easier, really.

When the owners of the Texas Renegades decided to build La Salle Arena, they made sure to include just about everything the players wanted. They have a full gym to accommodate everyone on the team at once with weights, benches, treadmills and whatever else they would need. They also have a bike room for team spin class sessions. They've also included a practice rink in the back where the team can spend time off the main rink to work on whatever they need on the ice, but also provide an area where the public can skate and practice with their school hockey teams. In addition to those practice and exercise areas, Texas has also included a team wind down area including a sauna and team masseurs to help the team unwind and stay in top shape. Team doctor's will also often visit the team in these areas to check up on them and make sure their body is in peak performance state.

PLAYER PROMPT

Viktor pretty much expects whatever the arena version of four walls, a roof, and a door is. The basics, basically, but done very well. Anything not 'essential' would be a surprise to him, as his idea of luxury is springing for brand name groceries. To start with the showers (one of Vik's favourite places to waste water and sing), he would love love love to see some indulgent soaps and shampoos. When he wants to treat himself at home, he springs for a fancy salon shampoo with some magic ingredient that has a cooling effect on the scalp. There is nothing better than feeling like a stick of gum when you get out of the washroom. And actually, speaking of washrooms: high end Japanese toilets. We're talking the ones that talk to you and comfort you while you are crouched over it menacingly. Heated seats, built-in bidets, pleasant little jingles, etc. Viktor really doesn't ask for much, so what's a couple million dollars-worth of toilets?

PLAYER PROMPT Written Task: When it comes to stadium amenities in hockey, there are several factors that are important to consider. Here are some aspects Mats Marner care about including weight room: 1. High-quality strength training equipment, including weightlifting machines, free weights, and cardiovascular machines 2. Ample space for players to move around comfortably 3. Proper flooring and mirrors for technique observation 4. Climate control to ensure a comfortable training environment 5.

High-speed internet and reliable Wi-Fi for quick access to video footage 4. Advanced video editing and analysis software 5. Whiteboards or marker boards for discussing tactics and strategies. Having well-equipped weight and film rooms ensures that players can effectively train and analyze their performance, contributing to their development and the team's success is what is most important to Mats Marner.

Well, we finally got the deal done and now that headache is out of the way, now for a new headache, what do we call this bad boy? Well as all stadiums do we need a company to buy the name of our stadium to help with costs because that shit ain't cheap. So I did some digging and there are a couple of Boston, New England-based companies around that I feel like would be a perfect fit for the New England Wolfpacks' new arena name. When I searched this one of the companies that popped up was Amazon, not sure exactly how true that is but I said it in my head a few times before pulling the trigger, "Amazon arena?" "Amazon Gardens?" Hmmm? Let's try a few more and then get back to that one, Draft Kings was another option "Draft Kings center?" "Draft Kings arena?" "Draft Kings Gardens?" We'll also come back to that one. Ouu this might be the one and if it sounds good I'm not even going back to the other ones because this might just be the one, "Air New England Center" I don't know about you but I love the sound of that, it's a New England based company (obviously)  and to be honest those last few kinda sucked so I think I'm going to hit up the Air New England airport and see if they're interested in having their name on our brand new stadium
