Assuming NO criteria other than "a cool location to be for a few days in mid-December, late-December, or early-January", where would you like to travel to for an EXISTING bowl game?

My Top Five are:
1) Hawai'i Bowl (Honolulu)
2) Las Vegas Bowl
3) New Mexico Bowl (Albuquerque)
4) Bahamas Bowl (Nassau)
5) Holiday Bowl (San Diego)

To clarify, do not consider these factors:
- not an SEC affiliate bowl
- our opponent would be very inferior
- choosing a bowl based on the lore, history or "respect" of the bowl or venue
- a bowl that used to exist but no longer does
- a locale that you wish had a bowl, but doesn't

Just choose based on everything except the game itself.

Rose Bowl
Bahamas Bowl
Holiday Bowl
Pinstripe Bowl
Alamo Bowl (simply because I think the river walk would be awesome with all the LSU fans)

I was trying to avoid the "you know, dipshit JP, the SEC has no way to get into the Hawai'i Bowl due to existing contracts"

If you want to go to these locales, just go. You don't need a football game to go to.

I've been to each one multiple times (except Hawai'i, only once so far). My point was the fun of seeing and interacting with LSU fans (and opposing fans) in cool bowl locations.

Thanks for the travel tips!

It's a dumb thread to wish for LSU to go to games reserved for mediocre teams.
