Bahamas Bowl Blog: Day 3

Following two days of fun in the sun on Paradise Island in the Bahamas, the Flames turned their full attention on Friday to their Bahamas Bowl match-up against Buffalo.

Friday's activities started with a late morning bus ride for a walk through at Thomas A. Robinson National Stadium in Nassau, Bahamas. The facility is the largest stadium in the country, it is currently used mostly for soccer matches and has hosted track & field qualifying events for the Bahamian national track & field teams.

Following the hour-long workout, Liberty Head Coach Jamey Chadwell, offensive lineman Aaron Fenimore and linebacker Joseph Carter spoke with the local media at a press conference to help promote tomorrow's game.

"Listen, I know that we started out as foe. But maybe someday we could become friends. Friends who ride majestic, translucent steeds, shooting flaming arrows across the bridge of Hemdale."
