Tropical Bowl
The Tropical Bowl was a college football bowl game played at Gator Bowl Stadium in Jacksonville, Florida. The game was played between 1951 and 1953 between historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). The first game in 1951 was organized by Jacksonville businessmen after the 1951 Florida A&M Rattlers football team neglected to play a game in Jacksonville.[1]
