Game Returning to Hawaii
The NFL is going back to Honolulu.
HONOLULU (AP) - The Pro Bowl will be played before the Super
Bowl when it returns to Honolulu next year.
The Hawaii Tourism Authority and the NFL announced Tuesday that
the game will be played at Aloha Stadium on Jan. 30, the Sunday
before the Super Bowl.
The Pro Bowl had historically been played in Honolulu the week
after the Super Bowl, but was changed when the all-star game moved
to Miami this year. The NFL says playing the Pro Bowl before the
big game generated more excitement and interest and was a good kick
off to Super Bowl week.
Hawaii is paying $4 million per game to host the Pro Bowl in
2011 and '12.

That’s good. Additional income for the place, though they are going to pay $4 million every game. And since NFL is now on the recruiting mode right now, I am sure that many people are now more curious about the Wonderlic test thing. It may sound new for those who are not really fond of the game but this game is an indicator of a players capacity on how fast he can think and react. Pat McInally, former punter for the Bengals and Harvard grad, is the highest scoring NFL player, with a perfect score of 50.
