I keep hoping they will bring back the Bluebonnet Bowl. BTW, I recall about 20 years ago the Peach Bowl came very close to being discontinued. Anybody remember the Cherry Bowl, played in the Pontiac Silverdome?

I have never heard of the Bluebonnet or Cherry Bowl, but I am only 27 years old. So that was definitely before my time. I wish it was still the Chick Fil A Peach Bowl, instead of the Chick Fil A Bowl.

I was a charter ticketholder from the very first Bluebonnet Bowl onward. Rice Stadium, I think it was Tulsa vs Mississippi, but could be wrong about that.

There weren't many things like that which I could afford straight out of school, so it was neat to get them - and the teams that played were always either mine or someone's in the family, lol, so lots of enthusiasm.

Heck, I didn't want Oilers season tickets - anyway, my business always had plenty of freebies for that, even Skyboxes.
