Fiesta Bowl

ONE MILLION, THIRTY THOUSAND, FOUR HUNDRED AND NINETY FIVE. That is the number of fans that entered the gates to KFC T20 Big Bash League fixtures during BBL05. With a crowd average of 28,279 over 32 games this summer, the BBL has found itself with the 9th highest attendance of a sporting fixture in the world. Crowds have risen an incredible 47% since the inaugural BBL01, when only 550,220 fans entered the gates (17,749 per game). Back then, the BBL was considered a joke of a league, something suitable for children, and children only. Now, five seasons in, not only is the Big Bash League appealing to children, it seems to be the trending topic around all of Australia come every summer. STARRY NIGHT: A domestic record of 80,883 fans watched on as the Melbourne Stars defeated the Melbourne Renegades at the MCG. So what’s changed? What has made the BBL the most talked about sport of the summer? Why are the fans now flooding through the gates? Where was all the support five years ago? In 2011, when the “KFC Twenty-20 Big Bash” rebranded and became the BBL, Australian domestic cricket fans were left unsure and confused about the whole concept. In South Australia, the West End Redbacks had become the blue Adelaide Strikers, a colour most associate with rival Victorians, who had seen their DEC Bushrangers become not one, but two new teams, the red Melbourne Renegades and green Melbourne Stars igniting a new Melbourne rivalry. The poor advertising and explanation of the new league…

mission throughout this paper is to convey a strong image on to why college athletes should be paid by the NCAA; based on the research I have done. This paper will be composed of various reason on why these athletes should be paid, and my paper will also include opposing views to this issue.

In the second section, I will…

Bowling Blues- Becoming Better It’s a typical Saturday morning. I get out of bed, walk up the stairs, and pour myself a bowl of Fruit Loops. The eating is slow because I do not plan on doing anything special today. At least, that’s what I believe until my monotonous meal is interrupted as my dad walks into the kitchen. “Ryker,” he says, “We are going bowling today. We will leave in twenty minutes.” Bowling! Excitement floods my mind as I tell myself that today will be the day that I will…

When I was a little boy, I loved to play sports and be active. When I woke up in the morning, I ask myself, “What am I going to accomplish today,” or “Where am I going to go today?” There is always one place for me that makes me who I really am and makes everything perfect, and that's the Bowling Alley. Ever since I was a little kid, my dad has been teaching me every little thing I needed to know about Bowling. I always wanted a tutor, but my dad always said no because he wanted to teach me to…

I have bowled for my entire life. I can’t remember my life without bowling. Over the years I have had coaches move away, quit coaching, or I got tired of them trying to tell me how to bowl the way that they think I should bowl. To the coaches that fall under the last of those, “I’m sorry that we are stubborn, and we have our minds set on the way that we want to bowl and there is no easy way to change the way we think.” The first few times I remember bowling was with my grandparents at Sterling…

ax chopping through wood. I caught a glimpse of the Donelson Bowling Team at the lanes out of the corner of my eye. The vibe of lanes two through six were stern and business like because both teams knew that a state tournament appearance was on the line. In the regional rankings, the teams were ranked third and fourth, and the top three teams in the region qualify for state while the others are forced to bowl in a district tournament where the winner goes to state. The team remembered what had…

Despite the fact Urban Meyer's team would no longer hold a top four ranking, the loss to…

ASU now hosts the college football Cactus Bowl and the ASU Sun Devil football team, of the Pacific-12 Conference.
