The best sports seat in the state is not the Nicholson seats at Thunder games. Not a luxury box looking down at Owen Field. Not lining the 18th green at Southern Hills when the PGA Championship comes through Tulsa.
The best sports seat in Oklahoma is the bottom row of the upper deck, just behind the OSU bench, at Gallagher-Iba Arena. And I had it Tuesday night.
As I’ve written before, I’ve cut back on my basketball trips to Stillwater. The Cowboys don’t play as many big games as they once did. That’s why you’ll never catch me tsk-tsking OSU fans for not going to Gallagher-Iba; I’m not going to ask you to do something I’m not willing to do myself.
