What Happens When You Lose

So I lost a bet as you heard on Monday, and my punishment was this blog. Yes I said punishment! As y'all know my friend, Miss Football, is a HUGE Oklahoma State fan from a small town like mine, Logan, NM! On Saturday her hometown played mine for the 1A Girls State Basketball Championship. Unfortunately as the last buzzer went off the Logan Lady Longhorns were victorious. So today I am going to tell you all about two of Miss Football's favorite things, small towns and Stillwater.

As I started thinking about how I was going to write this blog, I was clueless! First, I don't know crap about Logan (we were sworn enemies growing up on the court), and second, I AM AN OKLAHOMA SOONER FAN, not an Oklahoma State Cowboy. So it was obvious that I needed to bring in back up! Who better to tell me about her small town and Stillwater than Miss Football herself.

Small Towns
Miss Football has talked about her small town on numerous occasions and I can't help but agree with her. Much like my small town, her small town is filled with some of the best people you could find. People that shut down stores and drive 3 hours to pack the pit for basketball game, or sign up to bring casserole dishes when a loved one leaves us behind. People that would drop everything they are doing to help you gather cattle, or listen to you practice your speech before the state contest. This my friends is what small towns are all about. If you are from one, you know what I am talking about, if you aren't, you have no idea what you are missing out on.

Stillwater
Now this is where Miss Football went to college and I think it is safe to say that she fell in love with that town. This is a town where she met her best girlfriends, her favorite guys, and many memories that are irreplaceable. Now after reading all her stories over the past few years, I guess I can kind of see why she considers Stillwater "the happiest place in the world"! Now y'all don't go get crazy, I still do not like that awful orange color, but I can see how some people would. Its not just a symbol of OSU Cowboys and time to get your guns up, but a place to develop friendships that last a life time and the memories that keep you up years later as you laugh and reminisce.

So as a closing statement that I am being forced to say against my will, 
Logan and Stillwater are the best!

Have a great day lovelies!

  1. Haha! Well done. I don't feel like you'll be brought over from the dark side (OU) anytime soon, but this was a respectful tribute to the best university in the world. :)
