The San Francisco Bowl! it became the Hunger Bowl (?) and then the Foster Farms Bowl and now it's the Redbox Bowl!

This bowl has been renamed so many different times it's literally UNRECOGNIZABLE and this is considered a good thing for the bowl!

I think they are all silly names as they have nothing to do with football, but I feel the same about most stadium names in the states in general. Names totally unrelated to sports...
