A good crowd


With around 31,000 people in attendance, this game was quite fun! I have some more pics on my actual camera and will have to put them on here a little later. I received this email a couple of days before the game and found it quite funny...
Dear Wyoming fan,

Dear Stampede Members,
I know we all are looking forward to Saturday's big game with Texas. I would like to thank all of our students who picked up their tickets for the game, you will make the atmosphere in War Memorial Stadium very special.
There is one thing that really bothered me in my very first game at the stadium last week, and that is the chant that I heard coming from the student section after we announce "Another WYO First Down". We cannot have that in our stadium. It shows no class, and it is offensive to all of our great fans in attendance. I know I'm new to Wyoming, but I guarantee you that I do not want to be associated with that kind of chant. We want you to yell at the top of your lungs, and support the Cowboys, but please do it in a first-class way.
We appreciate you coming to our games, and we love the student-body support. Please do it the right way. Thanks, and GO COWBOYS!
Sincerely,
Dave ChristensenUniversity of Wyoming Head Football Coach
So at the beginning of the game the announcer said "And that another..." and the students disregarded this email and continued to say it. By the second quarter, the announcer stopped saying anything! Haha! I can't wait to see what happens when BYU comes to town....
