WHY, GOD? WHY?

Aspirational peer The House Rock Built has expert analysis on the atrocious Fiesta Bowl trophy. We still prefer the sweet-ass, keepin'-it-real trophy awarded to the Memphis Tigers for their victory over Akron in the Motor City Bowl:

Memphis plans to take their Motor City Bowl Trophy to a McDonald's in Arkansas, file the vin numbers off, and leave it there.

I’ll take the rusted car body any day of the week. The worst part of that trophy is that someone was likely paid good money to design it. Or, someone running the fiesta bowl got caught with a hooker and had to let his tacky wife design it as penance.

BGS has linked to some pictures (from the O-Zone), and one of them shows that horrible trophy in the foreground while Charlie Weis takes questions. I’m surprised Weis is able to look straight ahead…my gaze would be wandering back to that thing, car-wreck like.

That new Fiesta Bowl trophy looks like it was designed by someone high on weed. The football at the top looks like those plastic footballs thrown out at high school games by the cheerleaders. Whoever got to design this thing must have naked pictures of the Fiesta Bowl committee at a petting zoo or something.
