History
|
|
In 1999 the Western
Mass Chapter of the National
Football Foundation and College
Hall of Fame discussed the
possibility of having an
All-Star game for graduating
seniors. All-Star attempts to
have games before never
lasted more than a couple of
years. The coaches had ways to
organize the teams, coaching
staffs, equipment, practice and
game sites, but didn’t have the
resources or manpower to handle
publicity, game management,
ticket sales and other
organizational needs.
Longtime Chapter member Ron
Abdow met with football
foundation president Alex Rotsko
and Shrine representative Tony
Koss. Koss liked the idea and
brought it to the Melha Shriners.
The original plan was to set up
a game with All-Stars from
Western and CentralMass playing
a team from Connecticut but
Connecticut teams were committed
to an All-Star game with Rhode
Island and the present West
vs.Central format was selected. |

The first Chowder Bowl was played in 2001,
but not without incident. The game ended in
a 0-0 tie after severe thunder and lightning
storms knocked out the electricity and ended
the game early. Despite the weather, the
first game was a success. As we celebrate
the game’s 11th anniversary this year, it is
safe to say the Chowder
Bowl is here to stay.
