Geez, I wonder if OKC had a chance at getting this, this is huge for Memphis!

I've always thought of Memphis as a good peer city to compare to OKC.

City proper and MSA populations are almost the same.

Both have one pro NBA team: Memphis Grizzlies & OKC Thunder

Both located not far from larger progressive cities; Nashville and Dallas.

Just started a thread about this in Business Forum. Why doesn't Oklahoma compete and win big manufacturing plants Moderator may want to combine

Went to Memphis for an Energy road game back in June and was pretty impressed with their Downtown area, would recommend Wiseacre Brewing to anyone who visits.

Oklahoma and OKC should be trying to get big manufacturing plants. Or at least mid size ones. We have a great career tech system, and it should be getting exploited to our advantage.
