New Fiesta Bowl trophy makes us cry
Honestly, if they don't change this trophy before next year (when the Fiesta is the BCS Championship), I don't even want USC to win the BCS. I don't want this monstrosity anywhere near Heritage Hall.
I'm quite positive this is what Carrot Top and Liza Minnelli's lovechild would look like, if it took trophy form.

Well, I guess you will not have to worry about winning one of these trophies . . .

From an article about the jeweler that made the trophy (not my words): The trophy itself is stunning. It stands 46 inches tall and is 15 1/2 inches at its widest point, weighing nearly 200 pounds. The base and platform are carved from five different shades of marble. The players are created in sterling silver and the center column is lapis with 18 carat gold. The football is also 18 carat with an enameled Fiesta Bowl logo; 2,400 diamonds are encrusted across the stripe of the ball.
The creative team at Molina spent more than 2,000 hours on the project.

keep the trophy in arizona then. the designers of the trophy were given the go ahead, to design this. Many other jewelers in the world would be envious to have the same oppurtunity.

Looks like a puerto rican with a hot credit card and a bedazzler made it!
