Lingerie Bowl Canceled
The
Super Bowl halftime show is back in full swing, with Tom Petty
rocking football fans in Arizona this year. But the Lingerie Bowl,
a Super Bowl halftime show featuring scantily clad women available
for the last three years on pay-per-view, is no more.
Horizon Productions, the company that promotes the event, which in previous years was held in Los Angeles, said the city of Scottsdale took too long to process its permits and organizers were left without enough time to find an alternative venue.
The Bowl was widely publicized in Scottsdale since the location was announced last February, and more than 200 women auditioned for a spot in the lingerie-clad football game at the Jackrabbit Supper Club & Lounge in August.
Last year, the pay per view event was sponsored and nearly taken over by Bodog.com, but that company has now shifted its attention to mixed martial arts.
Supposedly the Lingerie Bowl will attempt to gain a new sponsor next year and show up once again on pay per view, though its chances are in doubt.
