Some traditions in college football catch on quickly and are instantly beloved, and one of the best examples of that is the still relatively new Pop-Tarts Bowl, which is only in its second season but captured the hearts of fans everywhere.
In the first Pop-Tarts Bowl last season, the non-edible Strawberry mascot had a brutally funny message before getting toasted: “Dreams really do come true.”
Keeping in line with the theme of living the dream by dying in a toaster and getting devoured by the winning team, the sacrificial non-edible Pop-Tarts Bowl mascot, the Frosted Cinnamon Roll, held up a final message for fans: “Follow your dreams.”

It’s just perfect. RIP, Frosted Cinnamon Roll.
Then, of course, the non-edible mascot went into the toaster and out popped a giant edible one for Iowa State players to enjoy after their win over Miami.
