The Fiesta Bowl is Moving Out of Town
In College Football the Fiesta Bowl is saying good bye to the
Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Arizona after 35 years since Arizona
State beat Florida State 45-38 in the inaugural Fiesta Bowl on
December 27th, 1971.
Next year, the College Football game will move across the
Phoenix Metropolitan Area to Glendale, due to that all the
proposals to build the new stadium in Tempe fell through and
Glendale emerged as the winning site.
Some of the features that this new College Football stadium will
show are: a retractable roof and a natural grass field that
slides out in the sunshine when it's not in use.
There were five national champions
crowned at the Tempe stadium:
Penn State (1987) Notre Dame (1989) Nebraska (1996) Tennessee
(1999) Ohio State (2003)
After 35 years in Tempe, College Football Fiesta Bowl fans have
been seen with a sense of nostalgia in their eyes for this
year's game, knowing that a new era is about to begin, with a
new place to go and encourage their favorite team.
