Tyre manufacturer Bridgestone Americas has extended its naming-rights agreement with the home arena of the Nashville Predators NHL ice hockey franchise. Under the new five-year agreement, the venue will continue to be known as Bridgestone Arena until 2030. The company has sponsored the arena since 2010 and signed its most recent deal with the Predators in December 2017. The new announcement coincided with the official unveiling of a FangVision, a new state-of-the-art scoreboard that will hang above the ice at Bridgestone Arena. The board includes four illuminated fangs on its corners and 4.2 million LED pixels, while it holds nearly 300 per cent more primary board size than the previous structure. Gordon Knapp, chief executive and president of Bridgestone Americas, said: "Our partnership with Nashville Predators and our association with this world-class arena continue to be great sources of pride and positive exposure for the Bridgestone brand.
