Personally, I think there are way too many college bowl games. It seems like more and more get added to the schedule every year. They’re beginning to be overproduced like plain one-colored jersey cards. I guess as long as companies keep throwing money at them two teams will find their way to a “big” game.
Penn State is scheduled to take on USC on Monday in the 103rd Rose Bowl Game. Earlier this week, Penn State beat USC in another classic bowl game – Lawry’s Beef Bowl. Lawry’s is an upscale restaurant in Beverly Hills that has been hosting the Beef Bowl for 61 years. What is the Beef Bowl? Before the Rose Bowl, each team is served a hefty meal of prime rib. Whichever team eats the most, wins the Beef Bowl. Penn State ate 536 lbs. compared to USC who came in at 502 lbs. That’s a combined 1,038 lbs. of beef eaten. Lawry’s Dallas, TX location also holds a Beef Bowl for the two Cotton Bowl participants.
You won’t find that much merchandise when it comes to the Beef Bowl. Occasionally pins will show up. I bought this pin for $12 last night. This specific pin was given out to players, guests, and members of the media who attended the dinner.
