Lol this is some ******ed sht. Fck the sun bowl they are the ones missing out on a major major flow of money going there way

I agree the decision is ridiculous, but I don't mind.

Wow!!!!! What violence or danger are they talking about? I've been stationed here in El Paso at Ft Bliss since 2005. It's so safe here it's boring! You can leave your front door open all night and not worry. It's gotta be cause the Sun Bowl is too small. As a matter of fact, they had the Abnar Mares fight last weekend, WTF they talkin about??????
