    Bowl Gifts

    These guys get some pretty cool stuff for playing in the bowl games. NCAA rules allow them to receive $500 or less in gifts. See what your guys are getting. Complete list in article.

    Personally, I think the Wii system bundle pack for the Las Vegas bowl is pretty awesome.

    My nephew has recieved digital cameras, Gameboys, and some other cool gear as a reward for the Golf team going to the NCAA tournament. Not to mention he gets a complete new set of irons/woods from Ping every year as well as all the Adidas clothing and shoes he needs and free Titlest ProV1 or ProV1x that he needs or wants.

    Back in the early-mid 90s, Brian got some cool stuff at the Cotton Bowl (twice) and the Fiesta Bowl. He gave some of it to me.

    Terry, that's great about your nephew. Nice rewards for hard work and success.

    Hey looking at that list...the ND guys would have gotten more if they came to the Texas Bowl. Less if they went to the Motor City Bowl, I guess that's a no brainer, even a Auto Industry Exec probably can't spend much for Christmas. :wink: :wink: :wink:

    Yeah I did catch that. The Motor City bowl really has a bad swag payout.

    I also noticed that the Cotton Bowl only gives out a watch. That must be a heck of a watch!

    The Cotton Bowl gave out a lot more than a watch about 15 years ago. Maybe times are tougher now.

    The Texas bowl has a nice gift package. I can't imagine that Houston is doing that much better than Dallas :)
