Same here, I'll always refer to it as "The Murph". They did name the grass after Jack Murphy:
"In 1997, the facility was renamed QUALCOMM Stadium after QUALCOMM Corporation paid $18 million for the naming rights. The naming rights will belong to QUALCOMM until 2017. In order to continue to honor Murphy, the city named the stadium site Jack Murphy Field. However, as part of the naming agreement Jack Murphy Field was not allowed to be used alongside QUALCOMM Stadium. Many San Diegans, however, still refer to the stadium as "Jack Murphy" or simply "The Murph." The most common nickname these days is "the Q"."

I'll probably come down and say "Hi." I just hope the city doesn't charge me $8 to park. :roll:

Buzzy Out!
