Yeah, I know it's a low tier bowl, in NYC which is probably second only to Hawaii in cost, but for a team that travels well and hasn't been bowling in 8 years, the crowd looks pretty sparse from initial shots.

Haven’t watched a December bowl game since… the Music City Bowl ?

Rather be in Hawaii over NYC this time of year
There's another baseball field bowl in crappy weather country besides this one. Think I've mentioned it before, if you're going to have those, Wrigley might as well throw their hat into the ring. Sure crime, sure, bad weather, but Wrigleyville makes the sell unique, plus you don't have as many seats you have to sell. This is all based on the idea that these bowls keep going moving forward, which looks pretty iffy. If the rest of broadcast (and a lot of streaming) didn't suck so bad, I'd say it'd be a lock, but the bowls do give people something to put on as background noise during the holiday, and that's worth some $$$ to some station or streamer.

Could work similar to the synthetically enhanced simulated fires/logs or fishtanks....

"I don't know, Larry.....don't think I'm up to it today.....think I'm gonna just go home and catch that Pinstripe Bowl. I'll see you later, ok?"

My kids are still talking about the Pop Tarts bowl 4 days later. That’s how you blend a sponsor, fun and decent football!
Itis always great to have the bowl game in a place someone would want to visit at that time of the year and that has a lot of other things to see and do besides the game. The game is then a plus win (preferably) or lose (not a blowout).
