I am not sure that 1998 was the date that the stadium was named after James Griffin. As a graduate of Central in 1994, we always knew the stadium by that name, in particular because of the bust situated immediately inside the main entrance. Perhaps this was an unofficial name, but I would wager it was named prior to 1994.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.240.30.217 (talk • contribs)

You are correct, I'm guessing 1998 was just a typo. I looked at the Twin Cities newspaper archives and they say 1988. The article has been updated accordingly. ~ Eóin (talk) 01:54, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
