The Mineral Water Bowl is a college football game hosted in Excelsior Springs, Missouri at Tiger Stadium . From 1947 to 1951, it was a high school bowl game to show case the Excelsior Spring High School team; however, this ended when the Missouri High School Athletic Association disallowed non-sanctioned post-season games, and the bowl was put on hold. In 1954, the game was revived as a small-college game. As of 1957, it was one of 11 NCAA sanctioned bowl games. The bowl game continued until 1975, when declining interest lead to the game being discontinued for a second time. In 1992 the bowl was again revived, this time as a National Junior College Athletic Association bowl game. After 1999, the bowl was reclassified as an NCAA bowl game once again, this time for Division II . Representatives from the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference and Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletic Association are chosen yearly for the game. The top-placing team in each conference not receiving a bid to the NCAA Division II playoffs receives an invitation to compete.
