Title: Future of War Memorial Stadium-Possible Bowl Game?
Post by: Mulerider4Life on June 15, 2018, 10:02:21 am
Could War Memorial possibly have a future bowl game? I figure if you keep ticket prices cheap enough, even Arkansas fans would probably go for entertainment purposes.

I think they tried that a few years back with Riceland Foods as the major sponsor and just could not get it done!  At the end of the day, it would be a lower end bowl with poor attendence.

There's too many bowls. No one wants to watch a 5-7 team because there aren't enough 6-6 teams to fill out all the bowls.

I understand, but I think some bowls may dip out of the next couple of years due to lack of revenue. Leaving War Memorial open.

Yeah, I don't think that would ever happen. There has to be ways to use War Memorial more though.

Would be a good game, but I assume UALR will not get Football.
