The Humanitarian Bowl

It's got a goofy name. It's played played on a blue field. And more often than not, the weather on gameday is cold and miserable. But more than a decade after its founding, and against all odds, the Humanitarian Bowl is still alive and kicking.

The Humanitarian Bowl has been played each year in Boise, Idaho, since 1997, and has always been hosted at Bronco Stadium, home of the Boise State Broncos.

The game currently pits schools from the Western Athletic Conference and Mid-American Conference. The sponsor is uDrove.
