Background: The University of Wyoming, located in Laramie, Wyoming, USA, first opened in September, 1887. It is the only educational institution in Wyoming that offers baccalaureate and graduate education. The University also offers outreach education in counties throughout Wyoming. As of 2002, the University had 12,766 students throughout the state.

The school's mascot is a cowboy, known as Pistol Pete. Men's athletic teams are known as Cowboys, and women's teams are called Cowgirls. Wyoming competes in NCAA Division I athletics (I-A for football) as a member of the Mountain West Conference.

War Memorial Stadium, capacity 33,500 was built in 1950 and remains one of the top football facilities in America. A beautiful manicured natural grass field sets off this breathtaking stadium, which at an elevation of 7,220 feet is the highest Division I football stadium in America. With the crowd noise, elevation and "Cowboy Tough" Wyoming teams, War Memorial Stadium has long been one of the most feared places to play in college football. The Cowboys have won over 70 percent of their games at War Memorial Stadium. War Memorial Stadium is no stranger on the national scene, as ESPN, CBS, and ABC annually broadcast Cowboy games from this magnificent facility.
