Potato Bowl ends in French fry bath

At the conclusion of the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl December 20, Eastern Michigan players celebrated their win over San Jose State by dumping a bucket of French fries on their coach.

The Eastern Michigan Eagles defeated the San Jose State Spartans 41-27 for their first bowl victory in 35 years.

The Idaho Potato Commission BB #:162339 sponsors the annual college football bowl game at Boise State University’s Albertsons Stadium and uses the opportunity to promote Idaho potatoes to a national ESPN television audience.
