Las Vegas Bowl launches new website for 25th edition

The Las Vegas Bowl, which already debuted a special logo to celebrate its 25th game this season, launched an all-new website design at lvbowl.com on Monday.

The site was designed and will be supported by Power On Marketing, a Florida-based company that is responsible for many of the online homes for ESPN Events, a division of ESPN.

“This new look is part of a really fun year for us celebrating the historic 25th edition of our bowl game,” said Las Vegas Bowl Executive Director John Saccenti.

The 25th Las Vegas Bowl, which is now the 16th-oldest active postseason bowl game, will be played Saturday, Dec. 17, 2016, at 12:30 p.m. at Sam Boyd Stadium. The game will be televised nationally on ABC, featuring the top choice from the Mountain West against the sixth pick from the Pac-12 Conference.

Tickets, on sale now, are priced ranging from $35-$250, depending on location. Visit www.lvbowl.com to purchase or for more information.

Last year’s edition saw No. 22 Utah defeat BYU 35-28 in front of a crowd of 42,213, which marked the event’s eighth sellout in the last 11 years.

UNLV has appeared in the Las Vegas Bowl twice, defeating Arkansas 31-14 in 2000. The team also beat Central Michigan, the Rebels’ opponent this upcoming week, 52-24 in 1994.
