The Oklahoma rivalry game is tomorrow. It is a Thanksgiving tradition. I am the only person in my immediate family that went to OSU (OK State). My parents and siblings all went to OU (sooners). My oldest boy thought Pistol Pete was a superhero. He had a orange OSU shirt with a large Pistol Pete mascot on the front and back. He wanted to wear it every time it was clean. When we visited Papa, he was told "Pistol Pete is an outlaw... a bad guy!" He was a serious kid who thought deeply about everything, so this information troubled him. We all have fun with the rivalry. Papa loves to buy sooner gear for my kiddos, and we love to wear our OSU gear when we visit. This year is the first year that we actually have the upperhand. We play on Sooner turf though, so it is not a easy win, if we can pull it off. My kids are in the spirit though. GO POKES!
