‘There’s no cow tipping in Oklahoma City’: One mayor’s T-shirt takedown

In the 10 months since Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt took office, he has overseen an $800 million street repair project, unveiled a new streetcar route and read stories to Kindergarten students most Fridays.

But this week, he announced on social media that he had accomplished a “personal mission” — ending the city airport’s sales of T-shirts that linked Oklahoma to cow tipping.

"NOTHING TIPS LIKE A COW," the offending shirts said in all caps, according to an image Holt shared Thursday. The garments featured a silhouette of a cow on its back printed over the shape of Oklahoma, and Holt said they were on prominent display.
