Grammar
Meaning of these Bowl's
Hi,
The writing below is from a book, and I would like to know what the underlined parts refer to. A name of a game or a name of a stadium.
When I google, "the" Liberty bowl seems like the name of a game because the name of the stadium is "Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium." But at the same time, the Tangerine Bowl also seems like the name of a game whereas the prepositions being used for them are different, in and at.
Would you tell me the meanings of "in the Liberty Bowl" and "at the Tangerine Bowl"?
"I was in Memphis last year when NC State whooped Georgia fourteen to seven in the Liberty Bowl," she said. "And I don't care who's playing, but I want to be sitting front-row center at the Tangerine Bowl.
Thank you,
M

Thank you for the reply.
So the both definitely are the names of the games. Would you tell me why one is described "in the Liberty Bowl" while the other is said "at the Tangerine Bowl"?

NC State whopped Georgia fourteen to seven in the Liberty Bowl [game] -- One team beat the other in the game.
"And I don't care who's playing, but I want to be sitting front-row center at the Tangerine Bowl [event].-- He wants a good seat at the event.

Thank you for the clear explanation. English has much less ambiguity in the language thatn Japanese, seemingly a tiny difference makes a big different.
