Lions and Tigers and Banks…
Comerica Bank is the naming rights sponsor of the ballpark that is home to the 2006 American League Champion Detroit Tigers. Now the bank is sponsoring some Lions.
The Sagemont School Lions. The Weston school’s 8,000-square-foot athletic dome – billed as the tallest structure in the city – is being renamed Comerica Bank Dome.
The dedication and official renaming is scheduled at 6:45 p.m. Thursday just before the Boys Varsity basketball team plays Horeb Academy. The dome, completed in 2004, is home to basketball and volleyball.
The school’s mascot, Monty the Lion, and cheerleaders will not only be wearing Comerica T-shirts, they will also toss Comerica T-shirts and caps into the crowd.
