About the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl
The Hawaii Bowl is a post-season National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I-A college football bowl game that has been played annually at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii on the island of Oahu since 2002. Played on Christmas or Christmas Eve, the game matches teams from Conference USA and the Western Athletic Conference member schools. In its first year, the Hawaii Bowl was sponsored by ConAgra Foods. The following year, Sheraton Hotels and Resorts Hawaii assumed sponsorship which it continues to hold today.
Aloha Stadium is a stadium located in Honolulu, Hawai'i. Currently Aloha Stadium is home to the University of Hawai'i Warrior football team (Western Athletic Conference, NCAA Division I-A). Since 1980 it has also been the site of the National Football League's Pro Bowl. It also hosts numerous high school football games during the season, and serves as a venue for large concerts and events. A swap meet in the stadium's parking lot every weekend draws large crowds. Aloha Stadium once served as home field for the AAA Hawaii Islanders of the Pacific Coast League from 1975 to 1987 before the team moved to Colorado Springs.
