For the eighth time since its opening, the home of the Miami Dolphins will have a new name. It was reported on Tuesday that effective immediately, the venue will be known as Hard Rock Stadium.

According to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald, there will be no references to the nearby Seminole Hard Rock Casino. That is being done to honor the NFL’s resistance to associate with gambling.

Still, there will be plenty of other references to the Hard Rock Cafe.

“I’m told there will not be a huge guitar fixed atop the new canopy of this stadium as it hangs outside Hard Rock Cafes around the world,” per Salguero. “But there will be typical Hard Rock trademarks, including the guitar, around the stadium and at the entrance to the main parking lots at Gate Four.”

Since its 1987 opening, this stadium has been called Dolphin Stadium, Joe Robbie Stadium, Dolphins Stadium, Pro Player Park, Pro Player Stadium, Landshark Stadium, and Sun Life Stadium.
