The Rose Bowl Parade in the morning.

The Rose Bowl game in the afternoon.

There isn’t anything better during the college football bowl season than this. In fact, the combination of the two make it the best bowl experience.

The Rose Bowl Parade, which is happening right now, actually, is totally awesome.

The game itself is an incredible experience. The events leading up to the game, like the Lawry Beef Bowl, are fantastic for the players. And to head to that stadium for the game, in the Arroyo Seco, with the San Gabriel Mountains as the backdrop, well, there’s nothing like it in college football.
