Candlestick Point and the cove in its embrace were named long ago after the indigenous candlestick bird. A member of the curlew family, the candlestick is a wading bird with long, thin legs and a body about the size of a chicken, according to nationally known ornithologist Henry L. Betten. At one time thousands of these birds inhabited the Bay Area, but they were nearly hunted to extinction by the 1950s due to the enormous demand for their delicate and delicious meat.

It's advertisement. They don't actually buy the park, but they "rent" the right to name it after their company. Just think of how many times football fans will hear the name Monster during the season and at concerts, and all of the monster cable advertisements that will air during games. Soon enough people will be poppin into their local Best Buys eatin that shit up...and for an FYI, Monster cables are marked up like fuckin crazy, I used to work at BB, and for an $80 gold whateverthefuhk cable that we would sell, the store got for less than $15...its crazy. Don't let the salespeople bend you over next time u go and buy a tv.
