Wyoming’s Beer Song Made A New Top 100 List
In heaven, there is no beer.
That's why we drink it here (Right Here!)
and when we're gone from here,
our friends will be drinking all our beer!
Those words can spark a rally for the Cowboys in a tight spot. War Memorial Stadium comes alive when the first note is played, and you hear a collective "WOO HOO" as the song plays.
"In Heaven, There Is No Beer" is a fantastic tradition in Wyoming. With the rapidly approaching college football season, the @CollegeFootball Instagram page posted a Top 100 list of the best traditions in college football.
Sure enough, the beer song made the list—barely, but being #100 IS ON THE LIST.
At every Wyoming home game the fans sing this glorious song and even the band joins in on the fun, playing the melody to the song known as “The Beer Song”! A great tradition ranking at 100.
Just thinking about the stadium erupting in excitement when the song starts to play gets me all fired up for another Pokes Football Season.
The song has been a tradition at the University of Wyoming for a long time, but last fall, it was given a different spin. It is a weird, interesting, "Are you serious?" spin, but different.
