ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. – The University of Central Florida’s Board of Trustees changed the name of FBC Mortgage Stadium during a meeting on Thursday.
UCF’s football stadium has been renamed to Acrisure Bounce House, according to the university.
The stadium has long been nicknamed the “Bounce House” in spite of any naming agreements due to how it shakes around when the fans start jumping.
