Follow us for information on hotels, restaurants, events, attractions, itineraries, and more. A breathtaking vision of the New West, Sheridan is Wyoming's emerald city. The kind of place where cowboys convene over craft b**r and coffee, where antelope spring over canvasses colored with Indian Paintbrush, and where the majestic peaks of northern Wyoming stand proudly. Cradled by the iconic Bighorn Mountain range, Sheridan extends a warm hospitality as legendary as the streets of historic downtown. Fabled cowboys once kicked up their boots at the Sheridan Inn, while modern mavericks revel in Old West charm at Sheridan's bistros, cafes and brewpubs. From the stage of the WYO Theater to the fine art lining the walls of the world-class Brinton Museum, arts and culture are alive and thriving throughout the Sheridan area. Outdoor recreation is near limitless when you're roaming the open range on horseback, backpacking unchartered territory or fishing the pristine mountain waters. Back in town, experience action-packed events such as the WYO Rodeo, 'Bighorn Country USA' or Indian Relay Championships. From polo to pow-wows, Sheridan is bursting with excitement and adventure as big as the Bighorns!

As the Wyoming Cowboys kick off the home slate at War Memorial Stadium against the University of Northern Colorado later today, we're going WAY BACK into the archives with a The Sheridan Press illustration by James F. Francis.

James F. Francis was the grandfather of our own Head of Media, Megan Ahrens Parker, and this piece, from what we can tell, ran ahead of the 1951 Gator Bowl (if we're wrong and you know more about this illustration, let us know).

Fun facts about that season:
The Wyoming Cowboys won the 1951 Gator Bowl, defeating the Washington and Lee Generals 20–7 on January 1, 1951, in Jacksonville, Florida.
Final Score: Wyoming 20, Washington and Lee 7
Head Coach: Bowden Wyatt
The win capped a perfect 10–0 season for the Cowboys.
Wyoming finished the season ranked No. 12 in the final Associated Press poll.
The team was the champion of the Skyline Conference.

Flash forward to 2026; where in Sheridan are you watching the game today?

This year’s theme, Wide Open Stories, is rooted in the place we call home and the power of great storytelling to broaden our perspective. Stories can take us somewhere unfamiliar, introduce us to new people and invite us to see the world—and sometimes ourselves—a little differently.
