History

In 1890, Pasadena, California held its first Tournament of Roses Parade to showcase the city's mild weather compared to the harsh winters in northern cities. In 1902, the annual festival was enhanced by adding a football game. Leaders in Miami, Florida decided to do the same with a "Fiesta of the American Tropics" that was centered around a New Year's Day football game in 1926. Although a second "Fiesta" was never held, Miami leaders later revived the idea with the "Palm Festival". The football game and associated festivities of the Palm Festival were soon named the "Orange Bowl."
