If you’ve never been, there’s a functional oil derrick in front of their capitol complex. 85% of the state functions like the movie “There will be blood.”

They have a whole celebration around eating bull testicles. The roads are long and straight like Kansas and Iowa…oh, and they’re toll roads. Most of the people I talked to hated it there and wanted to get the hell out. By far my least favorite state I’ve visited.

Don’t get me wrong, there are some decent things there. Red River is cool, watching a terrifyingly enormous thunderhead clap in the distance at night is starkly beautiful. It’s chock full of tribal culture and native and folk art. It’s the birthplace of Sonic Drive Ins and one of the smartest Product Managers I know came from there. But there’s a reason sometimes Oklahoma is removed from contiguous maps of the US.
