It’s that time of year again where crazy plans (last year is included in that) start to be planned, ideas get into the head that way exceed what the wallet can realistically cope with, but that’s the fun in planning these trips right?

It’s finally here! Not quite Sooner Football but at least we know who and when we shall be playing. I’m sure everyone that deals with the schedule has had a rough few months with the Big XII merry-go-round of teams coming and going, which has caused some havoc for scheduling. I have heard rumblings from… [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…]

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…]

As some of our twitter followers know, @Sridley1710 was lacking some Sooner gear for the upcoming FSU game. Problem I hear you shout, not really! Stacie has a flair for creating custom Rhinestone apparel/clothing, especially if it means she can make something shiny (Stacie’s favorite color is actually “Shiny” as she once told me early… [Read more…]

Well, from my last post to this one, plans have come and gone, been upgraded and improved. My original plan was to fly into Florida (I’m having to plan my Football fix around a holiday with my fiancée Stacie) spend some time there with friends, fly out to OKC and into Norman for a few… [Read more…]
