Been planning this ever since it was announced years ago...

Then my girlfriend's brother got engaged and set the wedding date on September 17th... and asked me to be a groomsmen...

Luckily the wedding is at noon. Going to leave immediately after the reception, drive from Orlando to Tallahassee to make it just in time for the kickoff.

Have a friend with FSU season tickets. He is sitting in the section right below the visitor's section. You'll have to watch out for me, since I will be right over the border in enemy territory.

(I'll be the one wearing the Sooner shirt)

BOOMER!!!

Shouldn't DD duties be determined by play on the golf course? Would make the round more interesting, IMO.

Flying into Jacksonville from London on Thursday; meeting my Dad and his buddy in Tally on Friday. Can't wait.

One of my old college buddies is ditching her hubby and kids and flying down here to Jax, and then she and I and my family (and maybe my next door neighbor, as our token 'Nole), are driving, prolly just back and forth, it's only 3 hours in a flat, straight line. We'll have lots of drivers if someone's trashed.

So, in answer to roll call, here, here, here, here, and here. ;)

Awright guys, I have blond hair, I'll be in a white shirt (happy, Colley?) that has vintage style letters saying SOONERS on the front, and red and white polka dot flip flops, most likely with a little girl who is my Mini-Me. If ya see me, yell "Hey Sunny!", and I'll know you're a SF.Com moe-ron, and not some random creepy moe-ron.

Hope to meet some of you, especially Sam from England, that is so cool, WE'RE INTERNATIONAL, BABY!! :D

I will be sitting with the "enemy" as well, although I will be with a good friend of mine that I used to work with that is an FSU grad, so he's not an enemy. We are in section 33, Row 22. My wife and I will be wearing white, but it won't stand out like it will in the Sooner section.

I know this doesn't pertain to the current thread but for some reason I'm not able to start a new thread.
Anywhoo, I've been to plenty of home games in Norman but I have never been to an away game. I live in the KC area and I want to take my son to the KU game in Lawrence.
Does anyone know how I can go about getting tickets in the OU section in Lawrence?
My son is 8. This will be his first live OU game.
Thanks for your help

I just talked to the hotel and they only provide a shuttle to the airport but they will call you a taxi. Apparently the hotel is only 2.1 miles from the Stadium so if worse comes to worse it can be walked quite easily.

No, I hear ya. We are planning on driving over for the end of Gameday, then back to the hotel for lunch and to get ready. Thinking about hanging out pre game south of the stadium around The Palace Saloon. Would be tough for my dad to make the walk there then up north and back.
