The trip last year was one that money can’t buy, and will probably never get repeated again (I still need to ask Kenny if he has had many random requests from Brits coming over to hook them up now!?). I have been busy the past day looking through the blog and seeing what things I… [Read more…]
The blog has digressed from just Sooner related, but it’s good to talk. I did need to do another Sooner Blog so what better thing to talk about than the Sooner Women’s Gymnastics team along with Bart Conner and Nadia Comaneci… A ‘Perfect’ match! If you didn’t already know, we love the Sooner Gymnasts from our visit. Everyone… [Read more…]
Has it really only been 4 months since Stacie and I were riding high from our short, but action packed few days in Norman? It honestly seems like it was a year ago, maybe even 2, but much longer than 4 months. We think about it all the time, the place that was so easy… [Read more…]
Going back into time again here, but I still have not even got around to the home game I got to see. I blame this partly down to several factors, but mainly is hard to write now as we really just would love to be back there so much it always makes it hard to… [Read more…]
Well I did that many amazing things, so many out of this world things at OU, the only way to do it justice would to be a photo blog of some of the things I got to do on the tour. I have spoke about this day already, but I’ve finally got the photos loaded to… [Read more…]
This post follows on from the most epic day stories, but I have the chance to speak in more detail and now add some photos. So this was the first ever time we had been into the Stadium. I think the first spot chosen to view the stadium and the field that legends and champions are… [Read more…]
Its been a couple of weeks since the visit, and I think it is finally sinking in. Before the visit, I could say I was a fan, and I loved being a Sooner but I had not been a part of it…..I had not lived it. Now, we have lived it, albeit it for a very short… [Read more…]
Before I get tied to the chair to write the 100 blogs that I need to catch up on, I just had to write this one. We have now arrived back from Miami and back at home and all we can say is, can we go back to Oklahoma now please? It really felt like Home!!!… [Read more…]
Simple title for a simple pleasure, and not my usual blog post (I promise it gets Sooner Related later on). After spending time over in the USA I can see why you don’t drink Tea more often, it’s really bad here, well the ones we tried! We had to bring our own teabags (Yorkshire Tea). However, after… [Read more…]
So I did not have time to finish this the other day, and well this was still on the Thursday and now the title seems a little redundant, as the most epic day now, was the game day, not that this day was any less epic… Just saying! So After the tour we had been… [Read more…]
We had been extremely lucky to have been invited over to spend time with the Women OU Gymnasts on our trip to Norman. I will totally tell you all that they did all this off their own backs, Kenny did not set this up as part of the tour. They just saw the story he wrote about us coming… [Read more…]
Well my Sooner family, it’s finally game day here in Norman, and I’m actually here in Norman, do not think that has really sunk in yet! Done some amazing things over the last few days, some I have managed to get down on the blog, most I have not. I hope you will continue to read after… [Read more…]
I know, I’m missing the second part of FSU game, and that’s to come but today has been the most epic day. I have a few minutes so hopefully gonna try to get some of the info down. Kenny Mossman has been more than amazing in setting up and showing me around the place. Kenny, Scott,… [Read more…]
So it’s now the Monday night as I write this, but the plays, the game, the atmosphere is imprinted in my mind forever. These are the stories that I will be telling to my kids, and their kids. I think watching the game live, even at an away game has ruined ever watching it again on TV,… [Read more…]
Honored and Proud just do not quite seem to do how I am feeling right now justice, but they give you an idea. I am just a normal guy and I really never expected that my story, my trip over to Norman to see the Sooners would create anything like a story on SoonerSports.com. This… [Read more…]
When my soccer loving Arsenal Sooner friend Scott (check out @SoonerGooners on twitter and facebook for like-minded people to watch Arsenal Soccer in OKC and Tulsa) came over last November, one thing he said to me that stuck in my mind was that Oklahoma hospitality is second to non and I would be knocked back… [Read more…]
