[edit] Roosterbowl

Roosterbowl (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)
  • 1. I don't believe the "Rooster bowl" is recognized by either University as an official event.
  • 2. The source website seems like the event itself is an event put on by a group of fans, but no official representatives from either school are shown on the website. The page could be considered an advertisement
  • 3. There is significant debate at Texas A&M weather the Texas Tech sports rivalry with A&M has any greater significance then with any other school. The sources that do recognize the perceived high levels of hostilities between the schools do not call the rivalry the "Rooster Bowl" but instead try to argue the existence of the sports rivalry itself.
  • 4. While this "rooster bowl" might eventually evolve into part of the official traditions of both schools, at the moment the are not. Therefore, I do not feel that the "Rooster Bowl" is notable for wikipedia at this time. Oldag07 23:31, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
Note: This was an incomplete nomination brought to my attention by another user. I'm completing it without a significant opinion on the article itself. – Luna Santin (talk) 10:54, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Appears to be non-notable, Google turned up only a few hundred links. RobJ1981 10:57, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - not noteable as a sporting / games event. Lradrama 12:38, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Why, oh why, did I visit roosterbowl.com? Why, oh why, did I read the story about how Joe and Blake pass a wooden rooster back and forth depending on the outcome of the game? Mandsford 01:26, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
