    Who is the most famous fictional Oklahoman?

    When I think of fictional Oklahoman's I think of Tom Joad. I'm just curious as to who actual Oklahomans think of when they think of fictional Oklahomans.

    Dumb question. Ever body knows it's Shirley Jones and Gordon McCrae.

    It's the native american boy in Turok.

    He's from OKC, btw. NOT that other town.

    He has no name but he's married to Betty Lou Thelma Liz

    He was born in Oklahoma,
    His wife's name's Betty Lou Thelma Liz
    And he's not responsible for what he's doing
    Cause his mother made him what he is.

    And it's up against the wall Redneck Mother,
    Mother, who has raised her son so well.
    He's thirty-four and drinking in a honky tonk.
    Just kicking hippies asses and raising hell.

    That guy is actually from TN, I think. I remember that portrayal as a particularly ugly stick in the eye to OK.
    Put a lid on it! Kiss it goodbye. We gave it away, and apparently thought it made sense to do so.

    When I stepped out into the bright sunlight, from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman, and a ride home.

    i'd say Stand Waitie in Harold Keith's Newberry Award winner: Rifles For Waitie.

    that's some pretty heavy **** for a kid's book.

    or: Pretty Boy Floyd in the Woody Guthrie tune.

    edit: yeah, i know i'm not going to win.
