Hawaii Bowl Swag
Sports Business Journal has a list of all the gits players will be receiving this bowl season from each of the respective bowl games. Here’s what the Notre Dame players will be getting from the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl.
- Kicker iKick500 iPod/iPhone dock
- Kahala Aloha shirt
- Oakley Hijinx sunglasses
- Oakley backpack
Not a bad set of gifts, but nothing all that great either. Each bowl is allowed to give gift sets worth up to $500 to up to 125 people each university brings according to that same article.
Had Notre Dame went to the Texas Bowl each player would have received: Party at Best Buy, Swisstek watch, Under Armour HeatGear long-sleeve T-shirt, Twister pants and cap; commemorative belt buckle, Toppers backpack, and a $300 Best Buy gift card. Had they gone to the Motor City Bowl the players would have gotten a Timely Watch Co. watch and Two pieces of Mercury luggage.

Im sure Jimmy Clausen is going to have a career day and throw something like 5 touchdowns and the offense will put up close to 500 yards in a Notre Dame blow out
just a prediction
they need a real QB
What they should get is a swift kick in the @ss for finishing the season as they did…
Google: Urban Meyer to ND
Read the Dec 11, 2008 articles
Radio and South Florida news paper.
He’s talking openly about ND still his dream Job.
If he doesn’t come 2009 they are saying Lou could keep the seat warm.
So, it’s not a question of if? It’s when?
I dig those shades.
The Kahala Aloha Shirt say’s on the back:
HIDING IN HAWAII UNTIL URBAN IS HIRED!
Can we just take the $500 in gifts in cash and put that towards the buyout?
Too bad they aren’t getting some instructional videos such as:
Proper blocking techniques
How to cut back when running the ball
How to throw the ball to a moving receiver
What to do when the other team does an onside kick
I’m sure there’s plenty more that can be added to this list, but I’m also sure the players would prefer the gifts the bowl reps are giving them instead.
