Aviation Bowl
The Aviation Bowl was a post-season college football bowl game played at Welcome Stadium in Dayton, Ohio, on December 9, 1961.〔Foldesy, Jody. "Bowls burgeon as big business", ''The Washington Times''. December 21, 1997. Page A1.〕 The University of New Mexico and Western Michigan University met in front of just over 3,500 fans. It should also be noted that it was unusually cold and miserable in Dayton on that particular December day. Although the NCAA approved a second edition for 1962, the bowl was never played again. It was a financial failure.
==Background==
The Lobos finishied tied for 3rd for Mountain States Conference in their final season in the conference. The Broncos had finished tied for 2nd in the Mid-American Conference. This was New Mexico's first bowl game since 1947 and Western Michigan's first ever bowl game. Rutgers and The Citadel were asked to play in the game, but they both declined. Bowling Green was considered to play, but they instead played in the Mercy Bowl, a fundraiser in memory of the members of the Cal Poly team members that died the year before after playing Bowling Green. Ohio was in the running as well, but they tied their last game against Western Michigan, 20-20. The two inch snowfall that fell prior to the game turned to sleet during the game, making the field wet. 〔http://thesportsarsenal.com/2012/07/17/when-the-aviation-bowl-didnt-fly/〕
