I'm not going to lie, I'm looking forward to this thread.
I'm sure it won't rival Timonen, but here goes anyway.
Gildan New Mexico - T-shirts, sweatshirts, underwear. Who doesn't occasionally wear at least one of those items?
Royal Purple Las Vegas - What a glommer Royal Purple is. "Well, Orange has it's own bowl…."
Famous Idaho Potato - I like my potatoes tasty, not famous
R+L Carriers New Orleans - I don't know what R+L Carriers does, but if it gets me to New Orleans, I'm down with it
Beef 'O' Brady's St. Petersburg - I had a beer with Beef once. Good conversationalist.
Sheraton Hawaii - This would be cool to attend, if only to rub shoulders with CTO and Bill Orange
Little Caesars Pizza - Crappy pizza. Crappy Bowl. They deserve each other. B1G vs. MAC - let me know how that works out for you
S.D. County Credit Union Poinsettia - How the hell did a local credit union come up with the dough to sponsor a bowl? If I were a shareholder, I'd want to see the books pronto!
Military Bowl Presented By Northrop Grumman - The Military Bowl sponsored by Northrup Grumman. Who'd have thunk it?
Texas - Simply yet elegantly named. Wonder where it's played?
Fight Hunger - Who can't get behind fighting hunger?
New Era Pinstripe - See Russell Athletic Bowl
Belk - Holy Crap! Belk sells things! Like in an online store! Hope they're only paying a couple hundred bucks for all that name recognition they thought they'd get.
Holy Crap 2! Belk is actually a department store! Apparently south of the Mason-Dixon line. Did anyone know this?
Russell Athletic - The winner of this bowl should play the winner of the New Era Pinstripe Bowl in the Loser Sports Apparrel Bowl.
Buffalo Wild Wings - Love B Dubs. Especially the mango habanero wings. Mmmmmm.
Bell Helicopter Armed Forces - See Military Bowl
AdvoCare V100 - Formerly the Poulan Weedeater Independence Bowl (golly I love that). I hear the swag bags come with a cleanse - have fun, Ga Tech! Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of guys.
Franklin American Mortgage Music City - This bowl took the record for longest-named bowl from the Poulan Weedeater Independence Bowl. Congrats! Plus, it also gave me a chance to say Poulan Weedeater Independence Bowl again.
Valero Alamo - Nothing says Texas like the Alamo and petrochemical products
National University Holiday - What is National University, and how come they're not on our schedule?
Hyundai Sun - Just for S&G, they should rename this the Hyundai Sundai Bowl. Too bad it's played on a Tuesday
AutoZone Liberty - This name just sounds so dated
Chick-fil-A - If you're so family values-oriented, how come you're not open on Sunday? Families eat on Sunday too, ya know
TaxSlayer.com Gator - This is almost as bad/good a name as the Poulan Weedeater Independence Bowl (there it is again)
Heart of Dallas - The good news - you get to play in Dallas! The bad news, you don't get to play in Jerruh World.
Capital One - What's in your wallet? Nothing, if you plan on going to the bowl game AND Disney World AND Sea World AND Universal Studios
Outback - No rules, just right! Hope they can get the Schiano stench out of the stadium first
Rose Bowl Game presented by VIZIO - Because, God forbid ANYONE places their bought-and-paid-for name before the sacred Rose Bowl. them
Tostitos Fiesta - Tostitos are OK, but when I looked in the record book to find all the records Boston College set, there was nothing! Just some IOU's from John Junker
Allstate Sugar - I long for the days of the USF&G Sugar Bowl, when everyone asked "What's USF&G?"
Discover Orange - Alabama is probably looking forward to the cash back, because they have nothing else to look forward to. Letdown Central
AT&T Cotton - I got nothin'
BBVA Compass - It appears that mortgage companies are trying to corner the bowl market
GoDaddy - Given that this is MAC vs. Sun Belt, they better have those hot models there to get people to attend
VIZIO BCS National Championship - I guess VIZIO got thrown a bone for the gazillion dollars they paid and got to put their name first in this one. the Rose Bowl, Grand--Daddy of them all.
