11/30/07 Independence Bowl Article

 

There is nothing more American than college football, and there is no better way to spend the holidays than at a college football bowl game. And if you don't want to spend a month's salary to do that, maybe you need to get Independence Bowl game tickets. Since it was inaugurated in the bicentennial year of 1976, hence the name Independence Bowl, this game will celebrate its 40th anniversary this year with a battle between the Big 12 and the SEC. The very first Independence Bowl featured McNeese State against Tulsa, and since then the status of the game has improved considerably. Over the last 10 years teams like Alabama, Nebraska, Texas Tech, LSU, Auburn, Notre Dame and Arkansas have all played in the Independence Bowl. So if you want to be there on December 27, 2006 at Independence Stadium, let GoTickets.com help you get Independence Bowl tickets.

Like many college football bowl games, the Independence Bowl has had its share of sponsor changes over the years, and it certainly has had some unique names. Remember the Poulan/Weed Eater Independence Bowl? Thankfully that is no more, but this game could have become the Déjà Vu Independence Bowl if the company that owns a chain of gentlemen's club had been successful in their bid to sponsor the game. Starting with the 2006 renewal, the game will be known as the PetroSun Independence Bowl. Whatever you want to call it, GoTickets.com will have great Independence Bowl seats for you.
