They've touted that except for the potentially cold weather (because football should be played in the cold), the Pinstripe Bowl is as marquee as any other bowl - big payouts, big city, big name stadium. But, in the proud New York tradition, the Pinstripe Bowl is lacking the most intangible and traditional aspects of bowl destinations - hospitality and celebration.
