~ Poinsettia Bowl ~

A few weeks ago I was surprised to receive an email that said "Your credential request has been approved for the 2008 Poinsettia Bowl." I've always wanted to shoot a bowl game, so I was really excited to have the opportunity to shoot one this year. The game was played at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, between Boise State and Texas Christian (TCU). Boise State was favored to win, but being one to side with the underdog, I was secretly hoping TCU would take it home, which they did by beating Boise State 17-16. Here are some images from the Poinsettia Bowl.
