From Staff Reports
NORMAN -- An explosion near the University of Oklahoma's Gaylord Family-Memorial Stadium killed one person Saturday, OU officials said.

The explosion happened at the courtyard near the George Lynn Cross Hall, Botany-Microbiology Building on OU's campus, which is west of the stadium, according to Sgt. Gary Robinson of the University police department.

The explosion happened during the second quarter of Oklahoma's game against Kansas State.

After the explosion, police set up a perimeter of several blocks and made fans exit the stadium to the east.

" . . . get . . . "

That's double-plus good for 'suppress', apparently.

See post #4119. News media is held back by lack of "on the record" information from law enforcement. No media conspiracy here.

Rick Roberts: maybe it's me, maybe I'm having a bad day, watched every minute of the press conf. today -- steroids, bird flu -- distractions, while people are streaming over the borders. Not one question about that.

Not one word about a homicide bomber at OU.

Talking about the non-Mexicans (OTMs) crossing the borders. Number has tripled in 3 years. Over 120,000 in the past year.

Roberts saying that the Mexicans if caught are deported, but the OTMs are arrested, and then released...

He took callers, but I had to go after the first one.

This is OU/Texas weekend in Dallas. They had better tighten the entrance security more than it was at our game on Saturday where they did a cursory check of bags at the gate we entered.

Yes IIRC he was talking about areas that could be used for quarantine. I imagine sick people would have to be moved, you can't quarantine a whole city.

We should use the hurricane bedlam as a warning, I can see people trying to escape or get away from infectious areas. Not a pretty picture.

I have also heard that there is no way enough vaccine can be made for everyone and if I remember the percentage they do/will have is very small.

It does. It's newsok.com. They share it with the Daily Oklahoman.

To cover it now would get many people asking..."How come I never heard about this?"

I've been a little evangelical about this. I'll ask one of my "smoking buddies" outside by the loading dock, "Say, did you hear about what happened in Oklahoma this weekend?" After, I tell them, they are absolutely incredulous. I tell them, "Ask why. This tells you something about our media."

Added to my list. Now the MSM goes into CYA mode.

That's what I was thinking, too. They've been having a rash of car breakins at highschool games--no security at all, practically.

I'll let you know... as luck would have it, I will be at that game, too...

For those who may not know, the Texas-OU game is played at the Cotton Bowl, which sits in Fair Park near downtown Dallas - and yes, the State Fair is going on right now...

I'm not sure.

She sounded pretty jovial for someone reporting details about an attempted suicide bombing.

About time! I was complaining at the game on Saturday that no one bothered to look at the bag I was carrying except a cursory look -- I put my purse in an OU bag and the person barely looked at it and didn't even look in my daughter's purse. Looks like I wasn't the only one not happy.

That deal on halftime has changed back and forth so much I still thought we couldn't leave the stadium at halftime until I read people were going out during halftime. Glad they shut it down again like they did after 9-11! I am one of the people that stay in my seat for halftime.
