Shopping sprees, Tony the Tiger and even fanny packs highlight gifts for players from participating schools.

Since 2006, Sports Business Journal has tracked the gifts that college football bowl committees have provided to the participants of their respective Football Bowl Subdivision games. Over the past few years, the majority of committees have opted to provide players with an opportunity to select items from a pop-up store, or gift suite, that is set up on campus or in the bowl’s host city prior to the game. The NCAA allows the committees to provide each participant with gifts totaling a combined maximum value of $550.

While electronics have become the most popular offerings, this year a handful of committees will capitalize on college football’s 150th anniversary by providing a commemorative coin or the “History of The Bowls: Celebrating The Good of The Game” book. Committees that provided the book were given a one-time waiver by the NCAA, so the gift did not count toward the $550 limit.

This month will also mark the first time a character from a cereal brand will adorn gift items (from the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl). Additionally, and inexplicably, a fanny pack will make its bowl season debut as part of the gift package cooked up by the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. It could also be the last time that players going to Charlotte are treated to a shopping spree at Belk department store, as this is the last year of that retailer’s title sponsorship.

The AutoZone Liberty Bowl folks will continue their shopping tradition. On Dec. 26, while one team is shopping at the Bass Pro Shops in the iconic Memphis Pyramid (the former home of University of Memphis basketball), the other school will enjoy two hours of unlimited food and gaming at Dave & Buster’s. The agenda will flip the next night.

New games in Myrtle Beach and Boston next year will help increase the bowl gift pie.

Goodyear Cotton Bowl representatives again would not disclose the contents of this year’s gift package. Organizers of this season’s national championship game also declined to provide details of their gifts. Players in last year’s title game, which featured Clemson and Alabama, each received an Armani Exchange watch and case, a jacket, a garment bag and a New Era cap.

Notes: All times listed are ET. Product details are provided as they were available as of Dec. 4. Most watches, rings, clothing, luggage and footballs are custom-made with the bowl logo. Gift suites are set up as private events in which up to 125 game participants per school are given an order form and allowed to select a gift, or gifts, up to a value that is determined by each bowl, not to exceed the NCAA limit of $550 per person. Additional packages can be purchased by the school.
