Hussey, recreation director for 1927, 1928 and 1929. The games received little Florida Power and Light, was friendly with Chick Earnie Seiler publicity and were not part of any festival. Henry Dutton, director of recreation for the Biltmore Hotel, Coral Gables, first promoted the idea of a post-season football game to attract tourists to the area. Dutton lured the Four Horsemen of Notre Dame to play an exhibition on New Year's Day, 1926. He added fireworks, parades, bands, dancing and a golf exhibition with Tommy Armour, Bobby Jones, Leo Diegie and Gene Sarazen and called the three-day affair "The Fiesta of the American Tropics.” Three days was the extent of it. Dutton did not attempt a second "fiesta." In the spring of 1929 a group of Miami business men formed their own version of a quarterback club to help the revitalized University of Miami rebuild its football program. The stock market crash and Miami's up-and- teams did not discourage the group, then known as the Greater Miami Athletic Association. It was from First AP Wire Photo this nucleus that the Orange Bowl Committee was born. The 1930 University of Miami squad won three games, lost four and tied one, scoring only 26 points and giving up 102. But the support group pressed on, confident that the Hurricanes would improve and tourists would someday flock to the town for "Football in the Tropics." The leaders pointed out that the tiny little community in Pasadena, Calif., had done wonders with its Tournament of Roses and were determined to do the same for Miami. It did not seem to matter to them that Pasadena was less than 15 miles from Los Angeles, a community of more than two million in those years. Miami's population in 1930 was 110,637. By 1932, the enthusiasm of the association's membership came to a boil. Plans for the first "Palm Festival" were formulated. "Have a Green Christmas in Miami" was the slogan, and a festival football game was scheduled for Moore Park. Wooden bleachers, seating 1,800, were erected at the corner of N.W. 7th Avenue and 36th Street.

Keith Phillips, chairman of the Greater Miami Athletic Club and President of the Miami Chamber of Commerce, invited Seiler and others to his office to discuss the prospect of a New Year’s Day football game—to be played at Miami Stadium—to succeed the first two Palm Festivals of 1933-34. Phillips and local radio announcer Dinty Dennis brought the name “Orange Bowl” to the newly formed committee where it was immedi- ately embraced. Despite having just six weeks to organize the contest, the first Orange Bowl Classic, pitting Bucknell against Miami, was played on January 1, 1935 in front of 5,135 fans, many begged off the streets at no charge.
