Kids Can Get in Free at the PGA Championship!!  Free!!  Face painting, Jupiter jumps bouncy things, miniature horsey rides, and more fun for the kids while mom and dad watch the PGA at Southern Hills!!  This idea of opening up a small amusement park at the Masters similar to S.H.  in Tulsa is brilliant!!  The 2023 PGA Championship may have a dog park!!

Day 9 of Lance Guarding the PGA Trophy:

Wife Keli put her foot down when Lance asked to put the Trophy in their bed after having a horrible dream!!  The PGA Championship trophy should never preclude your marriage!!  Wait.........how much is it worth?  Jk


B in T notes:


Tulsa Should be Very Proud of BTW’s Tyler Lockett

images_1.jpeg

Tyler Lockett leads the NFL with 10.6K total yards since 2015!

He was drafted 69th overall to the Seahawks in 2015.  Talent is everywhere in the draft and although the 2022 draft was average at best there will be a Tyler Locket hiding in the late rounds or free agencies!!  Tyler is from Tulsa, and attended Booker T. Washington High School, where he graduated in 2010. During the 2021-2022 season, Tyler created custom cleats for each NFL game this season to highlight parts of his hometown that were special to him, including QuikTrip cleats, which were featured in his prime-time Thursday night game against the Los Angeles Rams last year!!


TU Lineman is Amazing!

Chris Paul was just drafted by the

Commanders!!!  Paul played right tackle, left guard, and right guard and in high school, he was a team captain and school president at Jersey Village High School!!  Paul excelled academically and graduated with a degree in computer information systems and is currently working on his master’s degree!!  He received high marks from NFL teams for leadership and character and consistently graded out at 91% or higher!!  He is a talented musician - singer and after listening to his music on a TU podcast, Chris  should replace some of the older Earth Wind and Fire singers!!


B in T Worst Tailgates in College Football:

26PFdlyY3yoAAAAASUVORK5CYII=.png

  1. Boston College

The fans are just as likely to be sporting a mix of Celtics, Red Sox and Patriots gear as the Eagles’ Maroon and Gold!  There is little knowledge or excitement among the student body and alumni, with few Eagles jerseys visible other than Doug Flutie or Matt Ryan. The stadium lots are tiny, extremely expensive!!


  1. Duke

The Blue Devils have several restrictions regarding tailgating which reek of prison restrictions!!

Haha JK!  But close!


  1. Notre Dame

Between patrolling campus police an elitist alumni, the no-fun police are out in force!  When Tulsa fans became loud at a ND tailgate party, the South Bend Police SWAT team surrounded the blue hair Golden Hurricane group and then confiscated their beers and bong pipes!!  No fun again!!  No arrest were made but 


  1. West Virginia

Nobody parties harder and better than the Mountaineers but the chances are extremely high that your truck will be stolen while watching the game!!


  1. Wisconsin

They fricking administer a breathalyzer test before allowing stadium access!!  The Badgers should be ranked higher!


  1. Tulsa

Smack dab in da middle of the Bible Belt folks!  I have tailgated in 10 different areas around Chapman Stadium over the last 50 years and have never been offered a joint!?!? Just kidding!!  I have been offered Special Brownies!!  Should be higher!

  • When I coached kids softball my daughters wore bows, ribbons and pink unis!!  Those were the days!!  The 45-1 Oklahoma Sooner softball team with 35 run rule games wear no pink and eat red meat not kale for dinner!!  Possibly the best softball in history!!  Just take the entire Sooner girls to the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024!!

  • The 3 Amigos will end their careers with World Series Championships in 2022!!

  • Harry Carray’s great-grandsons are identical twin brothers who are announcers for the Double-A Amarillo Sod Farmers!!  Chris and Stephan Carray are 22 years old and when broadcasting in Tulsa are seen at the Buccaneer Bar and Elgin Park Bar and Grill!!

  • ORU basketball stud, Max Ambas, really should stay another year for Grad school!

  • PGA Championship Numbers 2022:  It's the largest month for tourism in the history of Tulsa,” said Ashleigh Bachert, Tulsa Regional Tourism interim senior VP. “We have rates ranging anywhere from $250 for a very lower end limited service all the way up to $1,200 for a higher end, full service property.”
  • Bachert says the one of the best indicators besides tax revenue brought in is bedroom stays per year. In 2020, Tulsa booked just 90,000 rooms because of the pandemic compared to this year, when stays for the PGA alone will nearly eclipse that, with 218,000 room nights already booked for 2022. The legacy and the long term impact that hopefully we have, and you talk about economic impact that can be measured in terms of tax revenue and things that, happen throughout the course of the week, and obviously the months leading up,” said PGA Championship Director Bryan Karns!!. “But it's really that long term establishment of Tulsa and the viability to host big events!  If you want a restaurant reservation, Bachert says that week may be better served at the drive through for us Tulsans.  “We can't find reservations, so my house may be hosting some evening events here shortly,” said Bachert.


MLB


Cardinals - 18 - 13 - Juan Yepez has replaced all the 6 of the DHs that have been used so far for the Birdies!!   This 23-year-old rookie has a nice bat and can play RF and 1B!  Batting .500 after 5 games with a .780 slugging average!!  Paul Dejong is batting .134 and that is after a 2 game hitting streak!!  Memphis AAA stud Gorman hits a home run every time he farts!!  Thirteen singers so far and why is he not batting fifth for the Birdies is beyond my realm of thinking!!  If confused about a Gorman call up to St. Louis write to Paul Mozeliak at PO Box 3, RR 1, Grey Summitt, Mo. 74115!!


Cubs - 11 - 16 - the little Cubby bears played the Dodgers 5 times and lost all 5 games by a combined 28 to 8 score!!  The good news is that they play the Dodgers 0 times the rest of the year and they are ahead of the Cincinnati Reds by 10 games for last place in the NL central!!


Rangers - 11- 17 - again I am claiming the best way to go to sleep is to put on headphones (1993 Radio Shack) then tune in to Eric Nadel and relax!!   The Rangers are playing much better and their sticks are picking up!!  Adolis Garcia continues to hit and Cory Seager could be an all-star on a winning team!


Royals - 10-17 -  the Royals are having George Brett Bobblehead Day on May 28th, and the first 10k fans will get bobbleheads!!  Hopefully, their attendance will even be 10k!!


Astros - 19-12 - Mighty Mite Jose Altuve stands 5’4” and can hit a ball 450ft!!  Might check that bat ump, just sayin!


Have a great sports week!
