It does not help that the Bowl Selections are made less than two weeks before the busiest, and most expensive, travel season of the year, when most seats are already sold anyway.

It does not help that the Bowl Selections are made less than two weeks before the busiest, and most expensive, travel season of the year, when most seats are already sold anyway.
Average airfare from Portland to San Diego was almost $500. EACH WAY. Even buying cheap seats for the Holiday Bowl (a third place bowl at that), was approximately $150. So our family of four was looking at $2600 before buying hotels, rental car, or any food. We want to support our team, but at what cost? That alone would almost buy season tickets, where we could drive down to Eugene every other week or so.
Or, has been stated here, a new giant tv, and a year’s worth of internet and streaming to watch from the comfort of home. The beer is always cold, the food is always delicious, both of which are top shelf, and there is no line for the bathroom!
It is not the same as a game day experience, but we at least got to keep the TV and stream for a year as a consolation.
Forcing fans to vote with their dollars means that Samsung, Costco and Comcast won the Holiday Bowl!

The game day experience at a lot of places is suffering.
