The Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl is out here straight grinding, having hula hoop contests and so forth, while the Pinstripe Bowl can't even hand out some pom poms:
The failure for the bowl hosts to organize pep rallies for the participating teams is simply a reflection of a lack of commitment by the Big East, Northeast football culture and the mostly the Yankees.
The Yankees promote the Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium as some sort of revival of classic college football in NYC - a return to tradition. They've touted that except for the potentially cold weather (because football should be played in the cold), the Pinstripe Bowl is as marquee as any other bowl - big payouts, big city, big name stadium. But, in the proud New York tradition, the Pinstripe Bowl is lacking the most intangible and traditional aspects of bowl destinations - hospitality and celebration.
