New Mexico Bowl under scrutiny amid budget cuts and politics
The New Mexico Bowl, a ESPN property run by the New Mexico Sports Authority, faces dissolution under Gov. Susana Martinez and reduced state funding. The event drew as much as 300000 in past years but only 50000 this year amid questions of interest in Albuquerque. The bowl, though smaller than BCS games, provides national exposure and ties to state tourism through images of the sky and local landmarks, with decades of athletic history noted in Albuquerque.
