The Christmas Bowl® is a newly proposed post-season college football bowl game,

located in Los Angeles, CA. The Christmas Bowl® location lends itself to some of the

largest college football conference followings, as well as one of the nations largest

tourist destinations.

The Christmas Bowl® anticipates NCAA certification in April 2014 for the 2014-2019

postseason, and will play the inaugural game the week of Christmas 2014 in one of the most historical stadiums in the world, The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

A Brand New Bowl Game!

Bringing a new bowl game to the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum has been a vision of Christmas Bowl® founders Derek Dearwater and John Perles, for over 10 years. The

Christmas Bowl® name was adopted in recognition of the first postseason bowl game ever

played in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum -- the 1924 Los Angeles Christmas Festival.

While the defunct bowl game was only played in 1924, it’s meaningful to the PAC-12, as it

showcased USC defeating a competitive University of Missouri team 20-7, finishing the

season with a record of 9-2. The 1924 Trojan’s were coached by Elmer Henderson, the

winningest coach in USC’s history, with a record of 45-7 (.865). Also present on the field

the day of the LA Christmas Festival, was Brice Taylor, USC’s first All-American.

Completed in 1923, Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum is located in the University Park

neighborhood of Los Angeles at Exposition Park. With a seating capacity of 93,607,

the Coliseum has played host to the USC Trojans (11 time NCAA Champions) since

1923.

In addition, The Coliseum has the distinction of being the only stadium in the world

to host the Olympic Games twice, in 1932 and 1984. It is also the only Olympic

stadium to have hosted the Super Bowl twice, in 1967 and 1973, as well as the World

Series in 1959. More recently, it was the selected stadium for the U.S. bid to host the

FIFA World Cup 2018/2022, which in Dec. 2010 was awarded to Russia (2018) and

Qatar (2022).

Los Angeles Mayor

Eric Garcetti

More Than Just Another Football Game

The Christmas Bowl® committee estimates the new bowl game will generate more

than $30 million annually for the local economy, much of which comes from out-of-

town fans spending on local hotels, restaurants, entertainment, retail stores, local

services and beyond.

Much more than just another football game, the Christmas Bowl® represents an

opportunity to become the second largest economic impact of an annual one-day

event during the holiday period in Los Angeles behind the Rose Bowl.

"The Christmas Bowl® is not only an

enjoyable entertainment option for Southern

California residents and tourists alike, but it is

also a critically important economic boost

to the local economy, " said Mayor Eric

Garcetti, "I’m pleased with the efforts of

Derek Dearwater and John Perles, as well as the rest of the Christmas Bowl® committee to

bring a new Holiday tradition for the City of Los Angeles.
