I was just informed that there will be an impromptu helmet celebration party tonight in Cheyenne. It is my understanding that a venue is still in the works but it has been narrowed down to Pointe Frontier and Aspen Winds.

Question though...will the "yellows / golds" match this time though? For those of you around in the late 80's you know WTF I am talking about.

They match my chip / dip bowl though - so I am good.

We were damn good then. 2 straight WAC Championships, 1 WAC co-Championship, 4 bowls, and one divisional championship. Plus we embarrassed the unnamed ones on national T.V. in 1988 wearing those helmets!!!!!

Almost as ugly as the 87 License Plates, there is a reason they moved away from that ugly plate.

We could have been wearing Pink and Purple polka-dots and been good when money wasn't the only thing that mattered in college sports, Let it go already.

Next someone is going to say they wish all the NFL teams still have the old dated look. There is a reason they say Wyoming like no place on earth. Because it's the only state people are happy living in the past permanently.

This is surprising. All the impressive graphics sent out to recruits, including various helmet/jersey combos....but overall Wyoming is opting for an old school look? Again, not sure how I feel about this. https://twitter.com/mikevorel/status/491682616723009537

Bohl wants simplicity with his team.. doesn't want distractions like a different uniform every week.

And that's fine. Our school colors and brown and gold. Helmet is brown and gold. We're not complicating our lives too much by having one extra helmet that looks awesome. Damn you old farts.
