Worst Bowl Name Ever?

[SteelClip49]

the Poulan Weedeater Independence Bowl is no longer the champion.

Say goodbye to the 10+ reign of the GMAC Bowl and hello to the.....

Also the Beef O'Brady's Bowl is a crap name as well.

[TUSooner]

Also known as the Tit-tease Bowl.

I can live with bowls having corporate sponsors and add their sponsor to the bowl name - like FedEx Orange Bowl - but when they just go by the sponsor's name it gets a little ridiculous.

totally agree, then i don't know whether it's an important bowl or not.

[Mad Dog Madsen]

Oklahoma should have a Dust Bowl... ;)

[StoopTroup]

I don't see anything wrong with the GoDaddy Bowl as long as all these corps continue to buy their icons the advertising the way they have been. The thing that will really start up controversy is when Larry Flynt buys the rights to the Hustler Holiday Bowl.

[Jacie]

In a similar vein there is the Papajohns.com bowl but there are plenty of em with names a lot more ridiculous than the Godaddy.com Bowl.

I submit for your inspection and scorn some from last year and what they are now . . .

San Diego County Credit Union Poinsetta Bowl (no previous sponsor)

AdvoCare V100 Independence Bowl (Poulan Weedeater was four sponsors, and hence, four different names ago)

R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl (previously the Wyndham New Orleans Bowl)

Konica Minolta Gator Bowl (since dropped, no current sponsor)

Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl (now the Kraft Foods Bowl)

Bridgepoint Education Holiday Bowl (previously the Sea World, Thrifty Car Rental, Plymouth, Culligan, and Pacific Life Holiday Bowl)

You know, with a little effort, we could get enough OU fans to chip in and sponsor the Oklahoma Sooner Fans Bowl. OUr team wouldn't have to be in it, we could just call it that.

What a halftime show that could be. :D

[StoopTroup]

What a halftime show that could be. :D

Especially if Oregon played in it

[theSoonertheBetter]

Especially if Oregon played in it

You mean the Oregon State Beavers?:P

[NormanPride]

Why doesn't OU host a bowl game? Goodness knows we have a large enough stadium and plenty of stuff going on in OKC and Norman. Can we not get a local sponsor? You know people would show up...

[Bourbon St Sooner]

The Mathis Bros. Furniture Bowl

The bowl in Houston was name after some furniture store a few years back.

[Always_Sooner]

Culligan Water Holiday Bowl. I like Pacific Life much better.

[StoopTroup]

Why Gatorade isn't the Sponsor of the Gator Bowl is beyond me. Just goes to show how detached Corp. Management is these days. They should be proud of their history as a leader in the Sports Drink Industry IMO....and being a sponsor of that Bowl especially now that it's open...seems like a very logical thing to do unless it's the Gator Bowl Committee that doesn't want them.

[stoopified]

If we had a 75000 seat stadium in OKC we could have the Oklahoma River Bowl.

[Dan Thompson]

Maybe Kohler should sponsor a bowl.

[sooner59]

The Mathis Bros. Furniture Bowl

Galleryfurniture.com Bowl. The sheephumpers actually played in it. :D

i don't think you'd draw much of a crowd unless OU was playing.

besides, the weather Could be absolutely miserable.

[yermom]

i wouldn't really want to go to a bowl in late December/early January in Norman, OK

of course, there is the Pinstripe Bowl now. at least the International Bowl in Toronto was in a dome...

[soonerboomer93]

I hear Austin is thinking about having a bowl in the expanded stadium.

In honor of Greg Davis they're going to call it The Toilet Bowl

[Collier11]

who the hell would want to play in Oklahoma in January, that isnt a reward...lol

[Mississippi Sooner]

Just think of what fun the Cotton Bowl was sometimes back when they still played it in the Cotton Bowl.

[texaspokieokie]

i went to the cotton bowl when Sooners played AR. froze my doogies off.

what about the one when Montana played for ND in the terrible ice.

[nativesooner]

You mean the Oregon State Beavers?:P

Just think if they played South Carolina! :D

[TUSooner]

Don't they play the Inhumanitarian Bowl in Boise, Idaho in late December?

[Mississippi Sooner]

I remember that one well. I knew the Houston quarterback, Danny Davis. Montana came into the game sick, but still led the Domers in one of the craziest comebacks I've ever seen.

[usaosooner]

really want Kotex to sponsor a bowl with a SEC vs Pac 10 tie in that way we can have the Crimson Tide vs Beavers bowl matchup

[sooner59]

+1 :D

[sooner59]

All PAC 10 matchup: Planned Parenthood Bowl featuring Trojans vs. Beavers.

[oudivesherpa]

How about the K-Y Jelly Bowl. With Slippery Rock as the host team.

[sooner59]

The Hokie Pokie Bowl: Va. Tech vs. Ok. State.

[bent rider]

Don't they play the Inhumanitarian Bowl in Boise, Idaho in late December?

Yep, and this year its sponsored by uDrove, some sort of phone app for truckers. Sad.

If an Oklahoma Bowl were commercially viable I'm sure EZ Million would have jumped on it by now.

Since Larry is dead, I doubt that he's interested in bowl games. Oklahoma could certainly sponsor a Wingnut Bowl after yesterday's election results.

[Scott D]

ya'll are just jealous of the Little Caesars Bowl..(formerly known as the Motor City Bowl)

[sooner59]

When did Larry Flynt die? Seems pretty alive to me.

[okiedokie]

The Mathis Bros. Furniture Bowl

this is funny! Those brothers must be in their 80's by now?

[okiedokie]

Maybe Fedex and UPS could co-sponsor a bowl and call it the FEDUP Bowl?

[bent rider]

Maybe Fedex and UPS could co-sponsor a bowl and call it the FEDUP Bowl?

Or the UPSex Bowl?

[BigDeezy]

I always thought Campbell's Soup should sponsor a Bowl.

Or one that might be for the crappiest teams - The Tidy Bowl Bowl

[Collier11]

The Depends Ultra Protection Bowl

[Scott D]

The Depends Ultra Protection Bowl

no word on if Texas fans have accepted the bid.

[sooner59]

The Depends Ultra Protection Bowl

That would be one sh!tty bowl game. :D

[Sooner_Tuf]

Larry is dead? Does he know he's dead?

[BigTip]

Godaddy.com Bowl is scheduled for Jan 6, 2011. Really? It's bad enough that the major bowls are playing past Jan 1st, but the Godaddy.com Bowl? Jeez.

And I hate how the announcers make it sound like it's still a big deal to make a January bowl even if it is the crappiest bowls with the crappiest teams.

[slh1234]

I'm waiting for the Toto Toilets Bowl ...

[Sooner Brewcrew]

insight.com bowl and humanitarian bowel were pretty lousy names

[BoulderSooner79]

Did Massengales ever sponsor a bowl?

[BoomerJack]

who the hell would want to play in Oklahoma in January, that isnt a reward...lol

Actually you could have a bowl game in Pickens Stadium @ Stillwater. It would pit the two worst teams in D-I. The teams would be REQUIRED to go to maintain membership in the NCAA and/or respectives conferences.

But fans would only be allowed in if they bought season tickets for the aggie rasslin' team. :pop:
