Safelite AutoGlass Becomes Sponsor Of Field At Ohio Stadium
Ohio State announced on Friday afternoon that Safelite AutoGlass, a Columbus-based vehicle glass services and recalibration company, will be the first-ever sponsor of the field at Ohio Stadium.
The company, which has sponsored the field goal netting in Ohio Stadium since 2014, will now have its logos painted at (not sewn into) the 25-yard lines in the 100-year-old venue, opposite of the Big Ten logos that have appeared on the field since 2012.
While the playing surface will now be known as Safelite Field, a team spokesperson said the name of Ohio Stadium will remain unchanged. That is unlike the Buckeyes' basketball arena, which includes sponsor alongside the name of the venue and is officially known as 'Value City Arena at the Jerome Schottenstein Center."
Financial details of the multi-year partnership are not known at this time. The Safelite logos will make their debut in the season opener against Notre Dame on Sept. 3.
