University of Oklahoma is home of the Sooners. These signs will be sure to tell whether or not you are a real Sooner, based off the things we typically do, and the places we usually go. Wanna be a Sooner? I’ll show you how to be one. These are the 22 signs you are a real Sooner.
Crimson and cream are the official colors of OU. They are your favorite colors, and they’re part of everything you wear.
You know you’re a Sooner when you show some respect for the tower clock. They say if you ever cross below the tower clock you won’t graduate.
It’s our official sign, Boomer Sooner! Yo Texas, got any passes for Six Flags?
You can be the most responsible and studious person at the school, but you can’t miss an OU football game, it’s unacceptable. You just need to go.
The legend is if you kiss a girl in the spoonholder, you’re destined to marry her. I’m OMW.
This is a saying on campus, or as I say “What in OUnation?©”
You definitely walk with a Sooner H2OK water bottle, and no, it does not contain potassium.
You know who Daddy David is. David Boren, president of OU. He is just the best! Don’t graduate without having a chat with him.
You’ve been asked “Oh you’re studying at that university that looks like Hogwarts?” No it’s not Hogwarts, but yes we have the Great Reading Room, which has similarities to what we know as Hogwarts. It is prohibited to talk inside there. It’s the ideal study spot.
Sorry Sooner vegans, the best pizza there is is Hideaway Pizza. I’m writing about this and I’m suddenly hungry, brb I’ll be at Hideaway.
At students events we’re always handing out food at no cost. Don’t feel like you’re purloining, just take it. I mean it’s free.
Sooners often participate in this philanthropy event which helps Oklahoma’s children by raising money for the Oklahoma City Hospital Foundation and Children’s Miracle Networks Hospital, ensuring that children can receive the care they need.
Sooners know the best donuts are at Hurts; their doors actually boast about it. Plus it’s 24/7! They have donuts topped with almost everything, even bacon! Gotta have it!
You’ve had to at least heard of it while you’ve been on campus. We have free movies every Friday night. Can we just accept that this is the best University on Earth?
We have the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art and the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History. If you have a date, take them to one of these! They’re just amazing. And yes, they’re free.
Many Sooners have gotten the chance to takeover the OU Snapchat for a day or so, and so can you! It was Cameron Morgan, an alumni of OU, who decided to make a campus snapchat. Follow OU!
Close by and pretty great, it’s the Sooner Mall. It’s just one of the malls near campus, and always has everything you need. Of course Sooners shop here.
You like sports? So does every Sooner. Houston Huff Center is great for working out, playing basketball, volleyball, and racket ball!
One great advantage of being a sooner: the library. We use it for multiple purposes; it contains a large amount of books, computers, and printers, available for whenever you need them!
Oklahoma City Downtown is less than half an hour away, and there, you can hangout with all your friends, like most Sooners often do. Perfect spot to hangout; I personally love Bricktown!
Sooners know they’ll find somewhere to fit in, without having to look too hard. You’re just another piece to this puzzle, full of diversity and school spirit. We are a family.
Every Sooner knows that their homecoming is better than any other college’s. Want to see for yourself? Apply at OU today!
