What about Milwaukee's Bradley Center? It was built via the philanthropic contributions of Jane Bradley and her family, and not any particular corporation that they may have owned.

Since the Wrigley Chewing Gum Company does not pay the Chicago Cubs for for naming rights to the Cubs ballpark the name Wrigley Field is by definition not owned by a corporate sponsor and therefor should be an answer instead of a bonus.

Thanks for the information! I was under the impression that the Bradley center represents the Alan-Bradley brand name of Rockwell Automation. With that said, I guess it wouldn't be a "sell-out" per se, but the center in a way represents a corporation. As for Wrigley, again, not a "sell-out" so to speak, but the name is advertising for the Wrigley company.

Even though the University of Phoenix is a university, it is a for-profit university. I think it's fine to consider it a corporation and to omit it from this quiz.
