| - The Corn Bowl was a college football bowl game played from 1947 until 1955 in central Illinois. The first game was played November 27, 1947 in Normal, Illinois between Southern Illinois and North Central of Illinois. Its final game was played November 24, 1955 between Western Illinois and Luther. There was no game played in 1952 and 1954. The game was primarily organized by A. B. Perry, who called for the construction of a stadium that would seat 150,000. The plans never came to fruition and the largest crowd attracted to a game was 8,000 spectators for the 1948 matchup. The 1949 matchup was witnessed by 4,567 fans. The bowl was sponsored by the Hybrid Seed Corn Breeders of Illinois and the Bloomington American Legion. (en)
