Bowl season features some peculiar and poorly named games throughout college football history. Here are the five worst bowl game names ever:

5. URL-Included Bowl Names Any bowl game that includes a website address in its title automatically makes the list. The URL addition is redundant since sponsor websites are typically obvious and easily found.

6. Wheat Bowl/College Fanz First Down Classic Located in Delaware, Iowa, this unique pre-season bowl game defeats the traditional purpose of bowl games. The "Fanz" spelling (with a Z) appears as a forced attempt to seem trendy.

7. The Refrigerator Bowl Held in Evansville, Indiana (once the refrigerator manufacturing capital), this bowl's most memorable game was Abilene Christian's 14-7 victory over Gustavus Adolphus. The city produced more refrigerators than notable football moments.

8. Salad Bowl Simply an unfortunate and unappetizing name for a football game.

9. Gasparilla Bowl and Independence Bowl (Tie) These bowls represent the epitome of poor naming conventions, with frequently changing sponsors including VoIP companies, restaurant chains, lawn mower manufacturers, and energy drink brands. Their constant sponsor turnover earns them the top spot.
