University of Wyoming Athletics and Wyoming Sports Properties announced on November 17, 2025 that Ramos Law would be the first on field logo sponsor in War Memorial Stadium’s 75 year history. The agreement placed Ramos Law branding at both 25 yard lines for the Cowboys final home game of the 2025 season and named the firm presenting sponsor of the halftime ceremony that retired former UW quarterback Josh Allen’s jersey. The game also served as Senior Day and Military Appreciation Day on the UW schedule.

Athletics officials framed the arrangement as historic for the program, emphasizing its novelty and the expanded visibility it provided during a marquee home finale. The branding was visible to fans in the stands and to audiences reached through game broadcasts and social media coverage, creating promotional value for the firm and a new revenue stream for the athletics department. The decision came as colleges nationwide increasingly seek diversified funding sources amid rising operational and facilities costs.

For Albany County residents the sponsorship carried both symbolic and practical consequences. The event drew alumni, families and visiting supporters to Laramie for a packed final home game, reinforcing short term spending at hotels, restaurants and retail establishments. The prominence of Josh Allen’s jersey retirement brought national attention to the campus event, amplifying promotional returns for local businesses that supported game day hospitality. At the same time the introduction of on field corporate branding touched on local conversations about preserving campus traditions and stadium aesthetics while pursuing commercial partnerships.

Longer term, the deal could set a precedent for additional naming and sponsorship opportunities across UW athletics and local venues. For county leaders and local businesses the key questions remain how revenue from such sponsorships will be used, and how the university balances commercial partnerships with community values. As college athletic budgets continue to evolve, Albany County will likely see more of these arrangements and the economic ripple effects that accompany major campus events.
