Cougar Pride

This bronze statue was dedicated this past November just before the Apple Cup and stands before the entrance to Martin Stadium, WSU's football field. The cougar has long been the mascot of Wazzu and in fact, 6 live cougars named Butch stood as mascots for the team from 1927 until 1978 when Butch the 6th passed away. It is nice to see 'Butch' once again standing proud for his team.

If you drive by at night, the lighting is focused in a very interesting place... the WSU jewels, if you will.
