nickname	Nickname of the game, if any. Do not add quotes, which are already included in the template.	The Granddaddy of Them All
defunct	If the bowl is defunct, type anything in this field to add the "defunct" status to the infobox. Otherwise, leave this field blank.
logo	Type the name of the image that has the name of the bowl in it here. Do not add brackets ([[ ]]) or namespace headers (File: or Image:). This may also be a picture of the game if the logo has not been uploaded.	RoseBowlLogo.jpg
image_size	How large you want the logo/image to be. If left blank, it defaults to how big the picture normally is. Do not add "px". As a general rule, try to keep images at or below 175 pixels.	175
caption	Type the logo (or picture) caption here.	Rose Bowl logo, 2006
stadium	Type the name where the game is currently played. Wikilink the name of the stadium, avoiding redirects and disambiguation pages.	[[Rose Bowl (stadium)|Rose Bowl]]
previous_stadiums	Type the name of other stadiums which have played host to the game. Wikilink the name of the stadium, avoiding redirects and disambiguation pages. Don't worry if this is a red link. After the name of the stadium, type the year or years when the game was played there. If a bowl is played at some location other than its normal location, why? Add a <ref> to explain (for help on using references, please see Wikipedia:Footnotes).	[[Wallace Wade Stadium]] (1942)<ref>The 1942 game was played in Wallace Wade Stadium in Durham, North Carolina, due to a restriction on crowds allowed on the [[West Coast of the United States|West Coast]] after [[Attack on Pearl Harbor|Pearl Harbor]].</ref>

years	List the years the bowl has been played. Make sure you use " — " (not " – ") for spans of years. Separate sets of years, or individual years with <br>. If the bowl is still being played, add "present" as the second part of each set of years, no link. Use game dates, not season dates.	1902<br>1916 — present (Note that the first game is listed as being played in 1916, despite it being part of the 1915 season)
conference_tie-ins	List current conference tie-ins, if known. Separate the two conferences with a comma. Wikilink each conference to its un-redirected form, piping the link for how the conference is known today, or its acronym. If the game has an at-large team (such as the BCS), note the selection process for selecting those teams. If the game is a BCS game, note that the game may lose conference champions to the title game. Make sure you use " — " (not " – ") for spans of years. Separate sets of years, or individual years with <br> .	[[Big Ten Conference|Big Ten]], [[Pac-12 Conference|Pac-10]] <ref>If either conference champion is in the [[BCS National Championship Game]], the champion is replaced by a BCS at-large team.</ref>
previous_tie-ins	List previous conference tie-ins, if known. Separate the two conference tie-ins with a comma. Type the years when this conference tie-in applied. Wikilink each conference to its un-redirected form, piping the link for how the conference is known today, or its acronym. When listing conferences here, list defunct conferences when they were in existence, even if the conference which succeeded the defunct one is listed in either conference tie-in section. Make sure you use " — ," not " – " for spans of years. Separate sets of years, or individual years with <br>.
payout	List the current payout for each team, if known. DO NOT add any currency formatting, as this has already been done. Only type the number of dollars. Do not write any other words after, such as "million" or "thousand." However, list (and link) the year in which this payout applied. Link the year as [[As of 2006|2006]] so that this payout can be updated each year (this will look like 2006). Has the payout changed? List any other payouts, if known. Separate this year's payout and previous years' payouts with <br>. Cite a source which lists payouts. Make sure you use " — ," not " – " for spans of years. Separate sets of years, or individual years with <br>.	17,000,000 ([[As of 2006|2006]])
sponsors	List the current and former sponsors of the game. Link to the sponsor's Wikipedia article. Red links are acceptable, though some discretion should be used if it looks like no Wikipedia article will ever be written on the subject. List and add the years when each sponsor had naming rights.

[[American Telephone & Telegraph Company|AT&T]] (1998 — 2001)<br> [[Sony]]/[[PlayStation 2]] (2002)<br>[[Citigroup|citi]] (2003 — present)<br>

prev_matchup_season	Season to which the previous game belonged.	2005
prev_matchup_teams	Add the previous year's matchup. Include rank, if applicable. In order of preference, the link should go to: The year's football team article The school's football article The school's athletics article The school's page	[[2005 Texas Longhorns football team|Texas]] vs. [[2005 USC Trojans football team|Southern California]]
prev_matchup_score	The score of the previous game. If this creates a link to a disambiguation page, do not fill in this line; instead, put the link and the score at the end of the previous line.	41-38
next_matchup_year	The year the next game takes place (may be different from season if game is after New Year's Day).	2007
next_matchup_season	Season to which the next game belongs	2006
