The arena will be called the KFC Yum! Center, and not the KFC Bucket as was originally proposed several years ago when the then Charlotte Hornets considered moving to Louisville before moving to New Orleans. I expect the Bucket name will catch as a nickname for the $238 million arena, which opens this fall with a women's basketball game between Louisville and traditional national power Tennessee. The first men's game, announced today, will be with national runner-up Butler.
