  • foreign asshole taxi driver stupi is as stupid does

  • i still call it the sears tower...always will

  • Sounds like Ellel tower -> Vodaphone tower, The Empire State Building -> Fly Emiraits building, Tokyo Tower -> Beijing Tower or Chrysler Building -> Hyundai Motors Building.

  • Changing the name of the Sears Tower is like changing the name of the Eiffel Tower, it's just not right.

  • Get over it times change and so do names it's just the way it is.

  • @dvferyance WTF? Okay then Empire state building changes it's name to: The Teen Mobile tower. would you like that?

  • @wwefanworld It wouldn't bother me life is about change nothing stays the same forever names change.

  • Haven't and will not call it by its new name.

    Sears Tower 4ever.

  • As far as i'm concerned every since I was a little boy this building was called the SEARS TOWER and that is what it will always be. I flat out refuse to call it Willis Tower.

  • Willis, Inc., go fuck yourself, this building will for ever be called SEARS Tower by us.

  • I still call it the Sears Tower.

  • It will always be the Sears Tower in Chicago, However United Airlines is considering moving its main offices into th building "United Tower" has a nicer ring I think

  • Go Chicago Tribune!! lol this is awesome; they make fun of it! I've never seen an "official" news thing do this before.

  • As we begin to enter into a new year old habbits needs to be left behind. Across the world violence, hunger, and s.t.d's are at an all time high. Please watch and subscribe to SPREAD THE WORD  videos as we set out on a journey to change the world one good deed at a time. SEARCH SPREADTHEWORD2010

  • You know the more I hear the name "Willis Tower" I am starting to like the way it sounds more and more.

  • Sears Tower is much better than Willis Tower! ;)

  • @lucasntas and it will always be known as teh sears tower. Besides it has a better ring to it.

  • The Willis Tower isn't even flying the American flag? Look at 0:06! Damn British.

  • they have more flags outside of the southern part of the building i think.

  • I will never call it Willis Tower!! I was born and raised in Chicago and known it as Sears Tower since my mama told me!! Who gave this willis dude the right to change a famous Chicago landmark's name anyway?? It sounds ridiculous! This video proves that people just aren't gonna get used to it, unless you were born in 2009, but for the people in my century, it'll always be SEARS TOWER!!!!

    I have really strong feelings about this, and my friend just found out that it was renamed.

  • uh, Sears tower is NOT the tallest building in the world, CN tower in Toronto is waay taller than that and was the tallest for more than 30 years. Tallest now is Aburj Dubai in UAE since 2007

    Anywho, I feel how Chicagoans feel, when they changed the name of Skydome to 'Rogers Centre' Torontonians still call it Skydome...even today. Only the ones that JUST moved to Toronto or the young ones who don't remember "Skydome" call it "Rogers Centre"

  • The CN Tower is just a glorified radio antenna. It only has 4 floors at the top.

  • Your point? it's a 'tower', doesn't matter how you describe the CN tower,it's still taller than the Sears/Willis, taller by a long shot

  • Well you said the CN Tower was the tallest BUILDING in North America. Though it can be called a radio antenna, I don't think it's much of a building. I've been there, and there's just a few floors of observation deck and a restaurant on top. You could stick a little house on top of Mount Everest and call it the tallest building in the world, but that wouldn't really be fair. People live and work in the Sears Tower. I think it deserves credit for being such a tall, completely occupied building.

  • Either way, it isn't the tallest

    ever heard of Aburj Dubai? Or Petronas Towers?

    it isn't the tallest by a long shot

    tallest building in the US, yes, but not the world liek that girl from the video said....it WHAT I'm saying

  • I know it's not the tallest building in the world. I'm just saying it's a more deserving "tallest building in North America" than the CN Tower.

  • @flipwits2 lol nice comment; stick a house on top of Everest. lol i can see it now; tallest building in the world; 29,000 feet; top that Dubai!!!!

  • "Tower" and "Building" are two different things. A building has top to bottom occupancy space with rooms, stairs, elevators, etc...a tower, like a "free standing tower" such as the CN, are different...think Eiffel Tower, etc.

  • I will NEVER call it Willis Tower.

    P.S. This is gonna be a huge problem for Taxi Drivers XD

  • I knew bruce willis would get a tower

  • screw willis. no chicagoan's gonna accept that anyways.

    its pointless. no one gives a damn. we're gonna call it sears tower forever. :D

  • I was thinking the same thing. Anyone who calls it the willis tower is a dumbass and probably not from chicago

  • I will NEVER call it the willis tower

  • i refuse to call it that name. It's like new york changing the name of the statue of liberty, it just can not happen.

  • Oh, please don't call it that. You'll only encourage them.

  • it will always be the sears
