The Cherry Bowl was an annual post-season college football bowl game played in the Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac, Michigan, in 1984 and 1985. The Cherry Bowl is noteworthy as an early attempt to bring a game to chilly Michigan, years before the successful Motor City Bowl (now known as the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl). However, the bowl was not financially viable, and folded after its second year. The Little Caesars Pizza Bowl has since replaced the Cherry Bowl as a northern dome bowl game.
