Seattle's Lumen Field has been rebranded for the World Cup soccer tournament as "Seattle Stadium." FIFA's exclusive use period started on May 17 and runs through the end of the World Cup. The 68,000-seat venue is hosting a half-dozen games, with the first held on June 15 and running through July 6. The tournament ends July 19. All 16 stadiums across the United States, Canada and Mexico are being neutrally renamed for the World Cup. SoFi Stadium has transformed into Los Angeles Stadium, for instance, while Arrowhead Stadium is Kansas City Stadium and so on. At each locale, fans have been noticing that cover-up signage is quite prominent.
