The Oakland Coliseum Is Now Officially RingCentral Coliseum
After a contract was approved Friday that finally put a cap on the stadium-naming mess involving former Coliseum Authority Executive Director Scott McKibben, the Oakland Coliseum is now formally RingCentral Coliseum.
And you know it s real when even Google Maps also reflects the change.
According to Mercury News, the lengthy and scandalous saga that put McKibben front-and-center in a lawsuit after he violated state laws by seeking personal payment from Belmont-based RingCentral is now all polished after the Coliseum Stadium Authority Board finally approved 2019’s $3M, three-year naming rights contract with RingCentral on Friday. (As the news outlet notes: The board learned McKibben had prior sought a finders fee for negotiating the contract, which is in complete violation of CA s conflict-of-interest laws; McKibben took a plea deal back in October to avoid trial and possible jail time.)
