I’m from Wyoming. Few notes on your film. - Cheyenne is pronounced "SHY-ANNE" - 2:06, not "one of" but in fact, THE least populated state. - 2:19, Colorado's MLB team is the Colorado Rockies not the Denver Browns. - 2:50, Grand Teton is pronounced "TEE-TAHN" - 3:44, while true we are often called "The Cowboy State" officially we are the "Equality State" - 6:17, Specsavers is headquartered in the UK in a place called Guernsey. Google AI has falsely equated this to Gurnsey, Wyoming, which only has a population of ~4k people. So, while Google claims Specsavers is the biggest employer in Wyoming, truth is they are not even located here. - 12:06 Laramie is pronounced “LAIR-AH-ME” - In general I’d recommend being more careful with your b-roll. There were a ton of shots that were very obviously not Wyoming, or featuring animals that don’t exist here. For instance 5:34 shows an Ibex which don’t even live in North America.
Saw a documentary once that claimed that, when some guy named something Vespucci was creating the map of the United States (!) in the 18th century, he left a spare space. In order to fill out the map, his assistant (some squat, chubby guy with feline features) quickly named the space Wyoming, which is old Italian for "No state here". Hence why no one knows anyone that was born and/or raised in Wyoming. I saw it on TV, so it must be true.
Wyoming friends! Did we pronounce all the city names correctly? Comment below if you catch any mistakes!

Wow thanks for these infos!
Your information is very interesting. Please look up/listen to the local pronunciation of Cheyanne, WY. (shy-AN)
The snow clearance operations @ 5:!2 is lifted from some other city (Montreal) and probably not from any city in Wyoming.
