Don’t pick on Okies: :)
Back in 68, our Battalion Commander at Ft. Sill was an OU grad/football player.
The night before The Game, in a fully prepared and rehersed military-like manouver, we painted over a huge billboard on I-35 just south of the Red River in a bright red base coat.
In huge white letters, we the painted letters on the sign to read; “Welcome to Baja Oklahoma.”
It was repainted over within 24 hours, but not before the damage was done. It was seen by everyone going to The Game from Norman, OKC, Tulsa, etc.
Big picture the front page of the Sunday Dallas Morning News!
I later wore out a few pairs of cowboy boots in Texas, but Lordy, that was fun!
That is very very cool! Gotta love it.
