Friday Night Sweetie and I had a date. Dinner and a Show!
First we went to McNellies downtown for burgers and beer. Nothing but the best for us. McNellies has dozens of beer on tap we got Chimay’s from Belgium.
Not only are they tasty, they are beautiful to look at.
Now, that’s what I call a perfect pairing. Sorry Sweetie, I couldn’t resist.
Then we went to the Brady Theater to see Norah Jones put on a show.
I wasn’t a fan of Ms. Jones going into the show but I am now. I thought her songs lacked “oomph” they were airy and weightless and not much substance. Hey, I’m a fan now. She can really sing plus it seems that she has a nice personality and handled the drunken “I love you Norah” calls from the audience with grace and humor. She put on a wonderful show. Apparently Tulsa is the start of her nationwide tour.
The funniest thing was when she asked if there were some sort of rivalry between Texas and Oklahoma and the audience responded with the drunken “BOOMER” only it sounded like “BOOMAUGHHAH”. She just laughed and said “All I can hear is Pooh Bear. What’s that about?” I laughed and laughed. You have to live in Oklahoma to hear the drunks go “BOOMAUGHHAH.” So for the rest of my life I’ll be yelling Pooh Bear!
Sorry OU Fans, that’s the way I roll. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t go to OU or OSU either one, and I love both schools (I expect SuperPizzaBoy may be attending one or the other eventually), but the Sooner Fans get a little overbearing. Hey I don’t blame them, lots to be proud of for that school. They have really worked hard building a University that the Football team can be proud of.
Yogi: Looks like a fun evening, beautiful wife my friend.
Hey, we OSU grads want equal time. Unlike the uncivilized bums from Norman, we are all gentlemen. (Not!)
Sounds like an awesome time! I love Nora Jones, her songs are so pretty. GO POOHBEARS! ~ Margie

Looks like a great night. I heard the concert was great.
Cute post! I live in a college football town. A few years ago we had a player on the FSU team whose nickname was pooh bear. Every time he made a play, the crowd started chanting pooh, pooh, pooh. I always thought it sounded like they were booing him!
