Watching ou - secsecsec roll-out:

...it is hilariously inferior to what happened in Austin yesterday.

 

Being a billion dollars in debt tends to hamstring party money.

 

$ec thought they knew money and power. They are about to find out about real money and power. Sark said you may have talent or you may have culture. But talent with culture, watch out. CdC with money --- watch out. Be afraid $ec, be very afraid.

 

Appears to me that the line to have your picture made with Bevo had more people than the entire Mobilehoma "celebration". Obviously, Castiglione should have displayed a large copy of a check with the amount of money this means to their program.

 

Well at least the line for a Fletcher’s was not long - not when I was there anyway. Good stuff!

 

Don’t they have a credit card?

 

Come on man, you know sooner don't have no credit... ou did a pay-day loan for the $billion!

Poor Brokelahoma and Jimboaggy have HUGE debt problems for the foreseeable future.

Dozens & dozens of people; well, maybe dozens; errr, maybe a dozen or so!?!?

 

That fake ou celebration had a real impressive and enthusiastic crowd! Plus none of those adults could dance worth a ****!!

 

Has OU ever celebrated anything in Norman without Barry & a few former players in attendance? Where was Castiglione? I looked but never saw Bosworth at ours. That video looked more like the grand opening of a new truck stop on I-35 or the crowd for half price day at Turner Falls.

 

The ou to SEC buffet & dance celebration was staged in the back yard of the Cracker Barrel in Norman.

 

That Geritol really gets you going!!

 

That is so brokelahoma!

 

I made a thing

 

^^^ Try to imagine the number of tooths, ou: vs. Arky & LSU ???

 

I was genuinely worried someone was going to die at our celebration. It was massively overcrowded on the South Mall. Glad nothing bad happened. At 9pm I got the heck out of there. Really poor crowd management.

 

Wow, tell us more about the celebration and being there!

 

People were having panic attacks. It was nuts. I left because it was super crowded. I wanted to see Pitbull but it was way too intense. I told some cops it seemed out of control but didn't stick around. Glad there were no headlines the next morning about stampedes.

 

^^^ Sounds wise for you to exit....

 

I had to leave early because heat was overcoming to wife. We intended on staying till fireworks but couldn’t make it past 6. Just too hot for the boss. Everything was great while we were there, watched the band and the ‘ladies’ march in preceding Bevo, who didn’t come in behind them which was kinda funny, but the whole thing was well done. I was surprised no kids jumped into the fountain area. For me the most outstanding occurrence was my getting to meet Bill Bradley. Ran into him completely by accident at Gregory Gym where we were trying to cool off (mistakenly thought there was an autograph session there). Remarkably nice guy who shares growing up in NE Texas with me. Anyway meeting a Longhorn hero like Bill made up for having to leave early for the wife.

 

Once got physically tossed into Littlefield Fountain and of course walked around the south mall as a student and Texas Ex. Watching the SEC hoopla unexpectedly brought back those fond memories. The location of the ESPN set, with the trees, crowds and clear view of the tower always in the background, was lovely. No surprise that the tv folks gushed about being at Texas. Big thanks to the architects and planners who designed that space long before TV was a consideration. Perhaps I am being old and sentimental, but the setting was more proof to me that it is a university of the first class, no matter what conference we're in.

 

I can tell you I was there at about 3:30p and the gates to the south mall wasn't even opening until 5pm. At 3:30p it was already shoulder to shoulder in the six pack (do they still call it that?) and hot as hell so we split around 4pm because I knew once those gates opened people were going to really show up.

The best part about being there at 3:30p there were former athletes everywhere. I didn't really recognize any of them, but you know a Texas athlete when you see one.

 

Hotter than blazes out at that time!!

 

Thank you both for representing HF.

 

I’m glad I didn’t go. It would have been fun, but I’m not roasting if there’s no actual game.

 

I worry about the same for the 2:30 game TxGrad.
