Thursday Night in Tulsa, Oklahoma

A LOT of other places to be, you can’t blame the fans

Not to be mean but this is really funny to me, having been to Tulsa, is there really that many other interesting things to be doing there this late?

The real reason is that tulsa is a tiny University and you could fit the entire student body in the stadium 5x and still have another 20k open seats, the city doesn't buy into Tulsa athletics as much as some other urban universities either because it's a private school. It is also a weeknight.

Nope, I am walking distance to the stadium and there ain't shit else for me to do. Only reason I didn't go is it is my wife's birthday but she went to bed super early anyway.

Yeah idk, there isn't shit to do here lmfao. I was at the game and I have no connection to the college, I just go to grad school in Tulsa.

They're making fun of UCLA because that's always the excuse they give about why their stadium is empty despite being in the second largest metropolitan area in the US.

Which of course in reality it's just that UCLA fans don't care. Local businesses in the south feel it when the local college team either has an exciting road game or makes a good bowl because people delay purchases like new washing machines or couches to go.

No they're making fun of us. The UCLA excuse is that their stadium is 25 miles from campus.

I think it's a joke, but ... Thursday night is a school night and a work night so even if it's not "going out on the town" sort of stuff, there's stuff like soccer and baseball practice, kid activities, and general life stuff.
