Date Night in the Big Town

So, you want to know whether or not it’s worth your $27.99 to check out the new Steel Lasso at Frontier City? First of all, if you’re asking that you have obviously been in a vegetative state since 1987. But I’m still willing to find out for you.

For my inaugural post here as a Lost Ogle contributor I am starting what I hope will be an entertaining series that doesn’t cause me too much physical harm. In this series, I am going to explore the various locations around and outside of the metro that are great for a date. “Great” is subjective and can be a lot of things for a lot of people. That’s where you come in.

I’m looking for places that are stereotypically Oklahoman in nature or that have a permanent place in local culture. Not some of the sleaziest places in OKC, as I’d like to survive and bring back a real story for you, but being cringeworthy is definitely not a deal breaker for this project. Being a country girl, only recently immigrated to Norman, I’m not familiar with all the dating “hot spots.” Here’s my list so far:

Frontier City
Crossroads Mall
Pops

See? I’m lost. I need you. Tell me where my boyfriend (who hesitantly agreed to this venture) and I should go. As long as it doesn’t require me getting my concealed carry license, we’ll be there.
