The money

The Guaranteed Rate Bowl was put on by the Valley of the Sun Bowl Foundation, a nonprofit. Its IRS Form 990 for the year to March 2024, which takes in this game, reports $5.3 million in revenue, $4.0 million of it from game revenue, and $4.2 million in expenses. Its best-paid, executive director Erik Moses, was paid $619,000.

From the organization’s IRS Form 990, via ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer and the IRS’s e-file data. Payments are the grants it lists on Schedule I of that return. See every filing at ProPublica (EIN 86-0902767).
