** Oklahoma University Sooners**
vs
** University of Texas Longhorns**
Football. American style. This game predates Oklahoma statehood even.
ABC 2:30 CST, Saturday the 11th of October
That’s tomorrow!
Well, thanks to a good friend, we get to have our own Red River Showdown.
We’re using her big house and yard to have a Mexican-ish cookout and game watching. We’ve got over 60 coming, probably more (these things get that way).
Four TVs set up throughout the house and outside.
I’m doing 30 lbs of briscket for fajitas, she’s doing 40 lbs of ribs, and another friend is bringing 10 gallons of chili and about 2½ gallons of guacamole. One of my cousins is bringing homemade salsa of various heats and tons of tortillas. I have about 60 bottles of imported beers chilling, with some other friends having promised about 100 bottles of Coors & Bud, plus rum, tequila, and bourbons coming with various other people. (That’s the only way to do it. Farm it out, spread the wealth.)
Though I’m a Texan, I’m no Longhorn. I went to Colorado (poor Buffs). I live in OKC. My Momma went to OU, so I guess I’m a Sooner by default.
Sooners will out number Longhorns by 5 to 1 at this shindig.
Will the #1 Sooners spank Texas 4 yrs in a row? Or will this be upset weekend?
All I can guarantee is: No one leaves hungry!
