==Culture== Since 1989, Pullman has been home to the [[National Lentil Festival]], a major community event celebrating the [[lentil]] [[legume]] grown in the surrounding [[Palouse]] region. The festival includes a lentil cook-off, Friday night street fair, Saturday parade and music in the park, and more. It is held in Reaney Park on the August weekend before fall semester classes start at WSU.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lentilfest.com/|title=Home}}</ref> ===Sports=== {{Main|Washington State Cougars}} College sports are popular in Pullman; most support is centered on the [[Washington State Cougars]] who compete in the [[Pac-12 Conference]] in [[NCAA Division I]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://wsucougars.com/ |title=WSU Cougars |access-date=March 21, 2020}}</ref> The [[Washington State Cougars football|football]] team plays at [[Martin Stadium]], and their in-state rivals are the [[Washington Huskies football|Washington Huskies]] with whom the Cougars play an annual [[rivalry game]], the [[Apple Cup]].
