It's littered with "walking distance" good times. Eats, drinks, etc. I mean it's a little big city so it's not far to anything your heart desires. But also not really overwhelming with unique "fun". If you're a history buff and into racial massacres or oil/gas based things you might go explore but as far as pubs and cigar bars and delicious eats. You'll be in a solid area. Is this "The Spladle"? That’s to keep your whining ass shut. You want off this ranch, you got it. I’ll drive your ass to the train station myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Deck Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Here is a thread of recs that I mostly agree with. Several other good places to eat in town, but this is a good starter list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was disappointed when I finally made it there after all the talk I'd heard for years. There's some cool stuff, but not a whole lot of it. I could spend an hour just on the museum grounds. Gorgeous gardens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitleIX is ripe for reform Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 About 45 miles north of Tulsa is Winganon, Oklahoma. This story will likely amuse you. https://www.newson6.com/story/5e3656392f69d76f6206bc99/lost-cement-mixer-of-winganon-gets-spaceage-update They even have a Facebook page devoted to this cultural phenomenon, which has even been the site of marriage proposals: https://www.facebook.com/winganonspacecapsule If you know any Planet of the Apes fans heading to the NCAAs in Tulsa, they might find that story to be particularly amusing.

I can appreciate that. But until it is collected with other roadside garbage, it seems kind of limited to being creatively labelled trash in a wet ditch. Maybe it's an Oklahoma thing that I'm missing. Edited December 29, 2022 by GreatWhiteNorth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the lack of hotel rooms and prices of flights, I hope that Tulsa is permanently off the rotation. I'm flying into Tulsa and out of OKC and my flight is still more expensive than my flight to Sicily I just booked for May. Not to mention the lack of suite availability at The BOK. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per usual Once everyone finds out how terrible Tulsa is you're gonna be able to buy tics for ten cent on the dollar. Additionally when folks realize that BOC ain't the largest arena for holding NCAA (its certainly not a football stadium) and that their seats are closer to the mat than expected, they'll probably just throw their tickets away. Just plan to be hanging out when that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
