The Champs Sports Bowl is an annual college football bowl game that is played in Orlando, Florida at the Citrus Bowl. The bowl is operated by Florida Citrus Sports, a non-profit group which also organizes the Capital One Bowl and Florida Classic. The bowl was founded in 1990 by Raycom and was originally played at Joe Robbie Stadium in Miami where it was known as the Blockbuster Bowl, the CarQuest Bowl, and the MicronPC Bowl.
The bowl was also known as the Tangerine Bowl, the original name for the Capital One Bowl, from the time it moved to Orlando until Foot Locker, the parent company of Champs Sports, purchased naming rights.
Now a days the Champs Sport Bowl is being held at the Citrus Bowl Stadium located in Orlando Florida, but in previous occasions the bowl was help at the Joe Robbie Stadium/Pro Player Stadium (1990-2000) and the Miami Gardens, Florida (1990-2000).
