Well I've made it in life...

[MR2-Sooner86]

I just met Roy Clark.

[OULenexaman]

was he a pickin......or a grinnin..

[Turd_Ferguson]

I just met Roy Clark.Kinda hard to believe he's a damn yankee.

[C&CDean]

Okies ain't yankees dumas.

[OULenexaman]

I saw Garth Brooks on TV the other day wearing a Penn St. lid....WTF is that??

[Turd_Ferguson]

Okies ain't yankees dumas.RC ain't an Okie...dumas.

[Mississippi Sooner]

Roy was born in Virginia, so technically not a yankee. He grew up in Staten Island, meh. But he lived for a long time in Oklahoma, so he's redeemed.

[C&CDean]

Like hell. He's even in the airport right by Mickey Mantle, James Garner, and Wilma Mankiller.

[saucysoonergal]

crap turd is right!!! "Born in Meherrin, Virginia, Clark grew up in Staten Island, New York"

[The Profit]

RC ain't an Okie...dumas.




I thought he was from Tulsa. I met him 30 some odd years ago, when he came to Lawton to welcome Pres. Gerald Ford to town. He was an Okie at that time.

(A Side Note) Ford got off of Air Force One and said, "its good to be here in Lawton, Texas.

LOL

He didn't fall down the steps of AF1?


;)

[C&CDean]

In fairness to RC, I wasn't born here either, and I'm an Okie's Okie.

[3rdgensooner]

I don't care if he came here from New York, a lot of people do. I just never cared for his music.

[C&CDean]

Me either, but the boy could sure play a guitar.

Well, he is no Buck Owens.

[3rdgensooner]

Well, he is no Buck Owens.Damn left-coaster

[saucysoonergal]

Damn left-coaster

;)

Without Buck, would we ever had Dwight Yoakam?

[The Profit]

LOL

No, he only word-stumbled on that trip. He actually flew into Lawton for the night before flying to Dallas the next day to toss the coin for the OU-shorthorn game. This was during the time that presidents didn't really like going to Dallas.

[Curly Bill]

I wasn't a fan either, but like Dean said: he could play some guitar.

[saucysoonergal]

He could pick on the banjo too!

[Turd_Ferguson]

A little Foggy Mountain Breakdown...hell yeah.

I played 9 holes at a pro-am with Roy Clark in Tulsa when I was 10. Very cool guy. He had blue cowboy boots studded on the soles with the biggest golf spikes I've ever seen.

In fairness to RC, I wasn't born here either, and I'm an Okie's Okie.

Speaking as a pedigreed fourth-generation Okie, I would agree Dean-o. The only thing that would give you more Okie cred would be if you blew up your barn cooking meth.:D

[C&CDean]

You cut me to the quick. I am an honest Okie. If I blow up my barn it will be by a) welding too close to the propane tank, b) welding too close to the hay barn, or c) farting too close to the wood burning stove.

[SanJoaquinSooner]

Things just haven't been the same since Mrs. Johnson socked it to the Harper Valley PTA.

[C&CDean]

That was Tennessee Juan. dumas.

[MamaMia]

I saw Garth Brooks on TV the other day wearing a Penn St. lid....WTF is that??

Hes an oSu aggie.

[The Profit]

Hes an oSu aggie.




Exactly. I have always despised him for that.

[Partial Qualifier]

I call bool****.

Why's that?

Speaking of Gerald Ford, he played in the same celebrity pro-am. And this was right about 30 years ago. Maybe it was part of the same week when they were both in Lawton

[soonercruiser]

Roast beef tonight!
I'm a pickin'!
:O

Beans too!
So, tomorrow I'm a grinnin'!
:P

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

Well, he is no Buck Owens.Buck Owens and Johnny Cash... the best country music EVAR!(for me, anyway)

[Curly Bill]

Holy hell....I was able to spek ya!!!:D

...and I was able to spek you. :D

[Partial Qualifier]

This and the Gerald Ford talk made me wonder. I took alot of pics that day but couldn't remember if I had pics that showed Roy's golf boots.......







The spikes were an inch long or more, he could've strolled up Mt. Everest in these things.

This is Roy and my friend's dad who got me on for 9 holes:

Ford & SS agent on the putting green:

Ford was president at the time. He had a golf cart with the presidential seal on the sides & front. SS agents were all over the place, this is the one pic I have of him without an agent leering back at me:

Also I got Jerry Pate's autograph, which I thought was a big deal. He was the "next Jack Nicklaus" candidate-of-the-month at the time. I think Hal Sutton was the next in line. Pate was good, but not *that* good.

[saucysoonergal]

I love those old 110 pics!!!

[C&CDean]

Roy got a little brotha in him, yo.

[Partial Qualifier]

Now that you mention it.... he does look much like the emcee of a reggae festival or something

[OULenexaman]

Roy be big pimpin....

[texaspokieokie]

Great photos !!!!!

[Turd_Ferguson]

I no longer call bool****...great pic's!!:D

[Mjcpr]

What golf course is that PQ?

What golf course is that PQ?

Cedar Ridge in Broken Arrow, 1977

[Turd_Ferguson]

I think he wore that hat back in the "hair transplant" day's...I remember seeing him in that hat at the NFR at the fairground back ina day...
