Rosemont Theater changed to Akoo Theatre

Did anyone know this happened? I got an email alert from Allstate saying that Yes and Brocus Harum would be playing the Akoo Theater, and I was like WTF is that?!!! Turns out this happened:

In other news, The Rosemont Horizon is now known as the Allstate Arena...

No idea what AKOO is, but my guess is they approached the village and said, "Let us slap our name on the Theatre for 10 years and we will pay you handsomely for it"
