The late start and being on national TV may hold it down a bit. Last I've seen it'll be around 25,000. The War holds around 29,000. Used to be 32,000 but with the addition of the Wildcatter Suites and taking out the south stands it's smaller.
Fun fact: When War Memorial Stadium is sold out it becomes the third largest "city" in the state of Wyoming.
Do you live in Wyoming? How are the winters?
No. I live in Woodbridge, VA about 25 miles south of Washington, DC. I was raised in Wyoming and graduated from UW in 1979. I left for an Army career and settled in Virginia after I got out.
The weather in Wyoming can be brutal in the winter. But summers are great. It's a sportsman's paradise with hunting, skiing, fishing, snowmobiling, climbing, camping, horseback riding some of the favorite pursuits.
I usually make it back for one game a year.
Thank you! I love to hike and camp, but as someone who lives in the south after living most of my life in the north, I don't know if i can do winters anymore. I would love to get up there and hike and camp for a week though.
Thank you for your service, best of luck tonight.

The post game press release said this was Wyoming's longest and latest game in school history.
