I'd have to say that New Orleans and Orlando (yes, I'm gonna be a homer on this) are probably the better spots just because there are plenty of hotels and other things to do in those cities before and after the games.
Boise Idaho no doubt
I couldn't decide between Boise, Bronx or Shreveport.
It's VERY hard to say New Orleans when Honolulu is on there.
Its multi choice. You can choose more than one.
true true
Shreveport is such a beautiful city in the winter months....Quote:

I've been to Honolulu. I'd take NOLA any day.
Shreveport is actually a great place to live and not a bad bowl city. Is it San Diego or Honolulu? Of course, not, but there are also worse places to visit than Shreveport. Come visit sometime, you might be surprised. Every bowl team that has come through Shreveport has had nothing but good things to say about the Independence Bowl. The bowl is always one of the most watched competitive bowls on ESPN and this years Independence Bowl is no exception. It will match Missouri against North Carolina, both teams are expected to bring a large contingency of fans that will spend alot of money in the Ark-La-Tex.
I would agree with this. If I had to live anywhere in LA besides lafayette it would probably be Shreveport. Lots of things to do and very easy to drive around the city. Also have some sweet bike trails that you can't find down here. Oh, and it doesn't stink of corndogs either, well for the most part.Quote:

Hi everybody... I just want you to read this over and over... since Turbine has these RP polls jump back to the top after anyone votes... hi everyone... how's it going?
I picked Boise purely for the ironyQuote:

Because it isn't a good "bowl city". The travel is a grind and the food and accomodations are expensive. Honolulu is a great place to go on vacation for a select group of people. I think it's one of the worst "bowl locations". If you have 5 to 7 days you can kill (travel time, bowl time, travel time, recouperation time) and the money... it isn't bad. But, for students and people that cannot afford the chunk of money... it is a no-go bowl game. The atmosphere of that game is almost equivalent to a "senior bowl". I think Fedora screwed the bulk of the USM fanbase.Quote:
