News 13 reports that "the bowl game has become a significant event — not just for football fans, but also for the Myrtle Beach community." This year's turnout is expected to be bigger than ever before. 

"The Myrtle Beach Bowl is the first of 44 bowl games this season. Both Georgia Southern (6-6 of the Sun Belt Conference) and Ohio (9-3 of the Mid-American Conference) have been on the Grand Strand since Tuesday, practicing and participating in a number of pregame events."

Even if you aren't a die-hard college football fan, the Myrtle Beach Bowl offers something for everyone. The surrounding area will offer festive events, family-friendly activities, and world-class entertainment all week long!

Make plans to visit Myrtle Beach for the football game this weekend! It is going to be a lot of fun!
