OP From today's New York Times:
ChevronTexaco announced yesterday that it would withdraw its support from the Metropolitan Opera's Saturday afternoon live radio broadcasts after the 2003-4 season, ending the longest continuous commercial sponsorship in broadcast history.
Joseph Volpe, general manager of the Met, said that he was determined to continue the broadcasts without ChevronTexaco and that he would look for a new sponsor.

Now then. Let's suppose the Met decides to have a different sponsor for each opera. What would be some appropriate sponsors?
To start off:
"The Magic Flute," brought to you by Grand Masonic Lodge No.146, Hoboken, New Jersey.
"La Traviata," brought to you by Robitussin cough syrup.
