BOSTON -- The FleetCenter may soon have a new name that Bostonians won't like.

The owners of the FleetCenter are auctioning off naming rights to the facility for charity. You bid on eBay and get to re-name the facility for a day.

Derek Jeter, of the New York Yankees, had his lawyer bid, according to the Boston Herald.

The FleetCenter could be renamed the Derek Jeter Center Tuesday, unless officials decide to refuse the bid.

Fark.com won this for the 28th, and voted to name it "Fark.com UFIA Arena"

UFIA stands for "unsolicited finger in anus".

Second place was "Fark.com Abe Vigoda Memorial Center"

Abe Vigoda is still alive.

The officials involved said no, so it will become "Boston Garden" for a day.

Even Fark's third choice was the best.

I think that is the most surprising thing I will hear all day.
