View Full Version : Fiesta Bowl Trophy: Like or No Like!
I think it is flippen awesome! I remember reading last year it has a lighting system in it.

The trophy itself is stunning. It stands 46 inches tall and is 15 1/2 inches at its widest point, weighing nearly 200 pounds. The base and platform are carved from five different shades of marble. The players are created in sterling silver and the center column is lapis with 18 carat gold. The football is also 18 carat with an enameled Fiesta Bowl logo; 2,400 diamonds are encrusted across the stripe of the ball.
I like it! It will look nice next to all of our other hardware!:D

It's beautiful...in an over-the-top sort of way. Besides, winning it is better then the alternative.

Its ugly as any trophy ive ever seen. I would rather they make a real trophy. That being said, I will love any and every trophy that we get. Im all about the trophies (unlike chase daniels). Haha.

I don't care if it's shaped like a dog turn covered in grass. If it's the Fiesta Bowl trophy, I like it.

If I remember correctly from last year, the winning team gets a replica of the trophy.
They're not giving out that much 'bling' every year.

That is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard. Every normal man knows that you are supposed to unplug it first.

You might reconsider that statement after you take a look at the trophy given to the winner of the New Mexico Bowl.

It would be cool if it had a big chip and dip dish on top, after they present the trophy all the players sit around it and have a chip and guacamole snack.
I think it would be cool if it came with it's own midget that wears a sombrero, with chips and salsa in the top and brim! It would also fend off people trying to steal or harm the trophy.

Gaudy, but I'll bet the runner-up version looks like butt.
It'll look just fine in the case.

It doesn't matter what it looks like.
If it's not crystal, Bob uses it to scrape the mud off his shoes.

The Fiesta Bowl trophy is worth more in price than the Crystal ball. The Fiesta Bowl trophy is estimated at $1 million. BTW, it is made at Midwest Trophy in Midwest City as well as the other bowl trophies.

I don't know if the replica's of the Fiesta Bowl are made at MWT or not. But, the real Trophy was made by a Jeweler out of AZ.

Is the ball covered with tin foil, and if so is there chocolate inside?

I don't care how crappy or gaudy it is. We should win it first and critique it later.
