Some im having this argument

[oudavid1]

If an F5 tornado hits Memorial Stadium (Owen Field)

Wouldnt the press box be gone? My Dad thinks that it would just lose all the windows. I think it would be gone.

We are talking direct hit.

I would say you are hypothesizing and not really arguing. Technically speaking.

The bigger question is who would win between an F5 Tornado and a Category 5 hurricane? My bet is on mini-Ditka.

:mad: :mad:

[C&CDean]

It sounds like your family are a bunch of sickos to me. Who would even think of such a thing?

[jk the sooner fan]

is it wrong to say that i wouldnt be sad if it took out the South End Zone?

[oudavid1]

Considering thats a 4 million dollar video board......uh yeah!

[NormanPride]

WTF, man?

[jk the sooner fan]

Considering thats a 4 million dollar video board......uh yeah!

just the seats....its where the visitors sit ya know

[OUMallen]

If an F-5 hit it, I think the press box would definitely be gone, the video boards on both sides, and I think it's really possible the upper decks might be ripped off too.

I have trouble believing it could uproot any significant portion of the main structure, though.

[OULenexaman]

bet back on your meds boy....

Major Lols, reporting for duty.

[Whet]

Windows and the interior would be destroyed. The building would remain. Although, the PB will be the next replacement for the stadium.

[texaspokieokie]

lotsa folks sit there that aren't visitors. even if it was all visitor, don't you want them to have a place to sit??

they do pay.

we had season tickets in south end zone, for 2 seasons. like 89 & 90.

[texaspokieokie]

like he told about doing to a girl in one of his classes.

If Ronnell Lewis ran into an F5 tornado, would the press box be gone?

[C&CDean]

If Ronnell Lewis ran into an F5 tornado, would the press box be gone?

no, but the tornado would be beaten down into a dust devil.

Socali is going to be pissed that you posted his picture.

[3rdgensooner]

^^ Does this imply that being a midget negates credibility of assessing thread gayness?

[proud gonzo]

Well, here's the guideline for damage caused by an EF5 Tornado:

Total Destruction.
Strong frame houses lifted off foundations and carried considerable distances to disintegrate; automobile sized missiles fly through the air in excess of 100 m (109 yd); trees debarked; steel reinforced concrete structures badly damaged.

So I'd say yes, the press box would be gone.

[proud gonzo]

and btw, damage for an EF4 includes "Skyscrapers and highrises toppled and destroyed."

[Wayne Jarvis]

If an F5 tornado hits Memorial Stadium (Owen Field)

Wouldnt the press box be gone?

Yes, but as soon as the maintenance crew got the journalist guts off the field, the game would continue.

[Sooner_Tuf]

We are talking direct hit.

If we don't hear from you for awhile we'll know your dad landed one.

Norman - Local legend has it that the city of Norman (Home to the University of Oklahoma) will never be struck by a tornado because it was built on an Indian burial ground. If you remember the big tornado that went through there in May of 1999 not one bit of Norman was touched, while neighboring Moore was hit extremely hard.

They must have moved it because we've had two in the last 2-3 years :eek:

[Flagstaffsooner]

But that was not the original Norman. Owen field is safe,

[yermom]

I guess I need to move :D

[proud gonzo]

How does that explain the tornado that went through East norman last year?

[Sooner_Tuf]

The spirit of Little Red saved the stadium.

[proud gonzo]

The spirit of Little Red saved the stadium.
It wasn't anywhere near the stadium. I'm just saying, it disproves the notion that a tornado will never hit Norman.

[Sooner_Tuf]

It wasn't anywhere near the stadium. I'm just saying, it disproves the notion that a tornado will never hit Norman.

Why do you think it never got near the stadium?
