Boise State Unveils Hand-Painted "Front Porch of Idaho" Helmet

Boise State is bringing art to the gridiron. For its Sept. 27 showdown against App State, the Broncos will debut the “Front Porch of Idaho” hand-painted helmet, a one-of-a-kind design that pays tribute to the beauty of Boise, The Blue, and the state of Idaho.

The helmet, crafted by artist Armando Villarreal, wraps around Boise State’s iconic blue shell with intricate white airbrushing accented in the Broncos’ signature orange. Every detail tells a piece of Idaho’s story:

Right Side: A galloping Bronco charging forward, symbolizing strength and tradition.

Left Side: The Idaho State Capitol framed by the scenic Boise foothills and the “City of Trees.”

Back: Albertsons Stadium and its world-famous blue turf above the Boise River, complete with tree-lined landscapes.

Finishing Touches: A bold orange flash in the Bronco’s eye and the end zones, plus a front bumper etched with “208,” representing both Idaho’s area code and the height of the Capitol dome.
