Yeah, that's why my Uncle Don did some time in McAlester. I don't remember the Sub ever being raided. The owners were pretty good about making sure all of that stayed outside on the "street".

I'm sure this thread will be subverted eventually with posts about the Blue Goose, Black Brick, Beethoven's, the Bowery and other local music venues over the decades, but I'm interested in the...

I cut and pasted the comment below from a post I just made on the Facebook group Remember in OKC When... I thought I might get more responses here.

I threw newspapers for The Oklahoma Journal in...

Absolutely! The most common color at Harding HS in 1967-68 and at NEHS in 1968-71 was navy blue, though I do remember seeing the blue and yellow before. I love the price in the fine print, "About...

Does anyone else remember these zippered jackets? They were a little heavier than a windbreaker, but not as heavy as a jean jacket. They were part of the high school uniform in the mid/late 60s,...

I have seen Laurie Anderson, Judy Collins and the Anderson-Ponty Band (former Yes vocalist along with Jean-Luc Ponty) all in the last year in Dallas. The venues were The Kessler Theater (best concert...

That will be hard to do.

Favorite Chuy's menu item: Southwestern Enchiladas. Homemade blue corn tortillas stacked with freshly-roasted, hand-pulled chicken, cheese & Green Chile sauce, topped with a fried egg. I usually...

I think I remember that concert, but I thought it was Meat Loaf and Whitesnake. Bat Out of Hell had just been released that week and we were going to go to that concert, but a sudden snow storm kept...

OKC Talk has been down to this for at least a year.

I had to check. This song is actually available for download on iTunes! Only 99 cents!

I play it at full volume when I listen to it.

Are the Occupy OKC folks still in Kerr Park? If so this says volumes about OKC, in a positive manner. If this had happened in the late '60s - early '70s DA Curtis P.Harris (Harass) would have had...

At least you stayed long enough for the best scene:

John Wayne: I aim to kill you, or see you hang in Fort Smith. What'll it be Ned?
Robert Duvall: I call that big talk from a one-eyed fat man....

Very cool. A++++

Like I said: Oklahoma and the 21st century = ships passing in the night.

deleted, as I don't want to offend.

That would be my guess. Kind of goes hand in hand with the brown bag law, requiring that all alcoholic beverages be in a paper sack or box before leaving the store, thus the nickname "package stores"...

Yeah, I'm aware of that. I drove a truck for Rich Distributing (Miller) in OKC from '76 to '79. What I was referring to is that there are only 6 states that sell "weak" beer (3.2). What OK, CO, KS,...

I still get a kick out of Oklahomans referring to real beer as "strong" beer.

Thanks RM. I hadn't heard the Auden quote before, and I agree totally with it. Great reference.

Charles Chaplin's final speech in "The Great Dictator"

God forbid you should actually SEE people who disagree with your politics. OKC, business as usual.

No, they'll say what the broadcasters said during the 2000 National Championship game, "Who would've thought Oklahoma had a game like this in them?"

Just everybody west of the Mississippi.
