Worst Bowl Game Name
Time to figure out which name of a bowl game HN officially deems as the worst. I want to emphasize that it's not about which bowl game is the worst; just about which name is the worst.

Re: Worst Bowl Game Name
can't get more ridiculous than #3, though there are many poorly named/sponsored bowls

Beef O Bradys

Worst bowl name and worst bowl game I'm ever seen. It seemed like a fake game

Re: Worst Bowl Game Name
I think a bowl game played in Idaho called the Potato Bowl makes sense.
I think a bowl game played in Yankee Stadium called the Pinstripe Bowl makes sense.

The fact that there is a bowl game in Yankee Stadium and in Boise Idaho is what gets me.

The fact the we call the Rose Bowl the "Rose Bowl Game presented by VIZIO" is just as bad.

Re: Worst Bowl Game Name
Just voted for the San Diego county credit union poinsettia bowl because it's on right now. Falsie's right. Too many to choose from. I'm overwhelmed.

Re: Worst Bowl Game Name
SDCCU Poinsettia Bowl because it is just too long. The Franklin...Bowl is a close second.

Re: Worst Bowl Game Name
Belk Bowl??? Sounds like something one would barf into.
Now that I think about it, that may be quite accurate.

Re: Worst Bowl Game Name
Beef O'Brady's is pretty awful, but I think "Belk Bowl" beats it by a nose.

I miss those days
