Shrine Bowl

[Charlie Marlow]

South beat the North 14-7

anyone remember when this game was kind of a big deal?

Yes I definitely do. It’s a great tradition that has certainly lost some luster, for quite a few reasons.

That being said, I still highly recommend for any high school senior who gets selected to take the offer. It is truly a great experience.

Went to the Shrine Bowl for the first time ever, as a nephew was selected and played for the North team. Was a good time.

They still do gameday 100% right.

And the kids are treated so well the whole week…you cannot imagine how great the food situation is…those kids seriously eat like kings, and not like fancy restaurant crap, but so many damn leftovers(steaks, pizzas, chicken breasts, brats, etc) in the dorm fridges AFTER the meals.

And those dummies still DoorDash like crazy almost like it’s a competition.

In the 1970s, camp was 2 weeks and they flew us to the Shriner's Children's Hospital in Minneapolis to meet the kids. It was the first time most of us had been on a plane. Simpler times. It was a great experience.
