Officers were not allowing anyone to exit the stadium, but Robinson said the spectators were safe.
not knowing the circumstances of the blast, is it smart to keep all these people in the stadium ?
Is it even legal to do so ?

Law enforcement officers cordoned off an area west of a packed Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, where the Oklahoma Sooners were playing Kansas State. Spectators reported hearing a loud boom just before the end of the first half, but no smoke or fire was seen. Some yahoo in a celebratin' mood musta flicked his bic to a stick of dynamite. Casualty list: one yahoo.

I'm a slow typer....would have caught the post above with the police report. Could very well be someone(the victim) could have been on his way into the lab to set off a boomer. Looks like it went off early??

an explosive device is NOT necessarily a bomb. a cap gun is an explosive deveice to the knee-jerk liberals.
This was most likely a college prank or homemade fireworks display gone wrong after someon didn't wuite finish reading the instructions on how to build the fuze correctly.

My wife just called from the stadium. She supervises one of the University sky boxes and said there was a tremendous blast and they wont let anyone have access to thier cars parked in the area of the bomb. It was apparently a suicide bomber who prematurely triggered the bomb. It was just before halftime with 80,000 people in the stands. My guess is an OU student from a Muslim country. I am so angry I am shaking.SAY WHAT!!!!!!????
If true, it's time for MASS DEPORTATIONS

suicide bomberIf that is true, and it's Muslim, I wouldn't want to be a Muslim student in Norman. Of course, it's all still speculation.
