DescriptionThis is a slide of ASU's Homecoming Parade in 1967, where ASU faced off against the Wyoming Cowboys in Tempe. The photo has two parade floats passing by and a woman sitting on the street watching on. There is also a platform that says "Possible Dream." Coming into the football game, ASU and Wyoming were vying for control of their conference, the WAC. ASU was 5-1 and Wyoming was 6-0 and ranked 8th in the country. The game was close, but Wyoming took the win 15-13. They ended up finishing the season 10-1 and undefeated conference champions, but lost in the Sugar Bowl.
