Smithsonian Magazine is a good read. We subscribe, and not just because we enjoy the torrential outpouring of hourly renewal offers pouring into our mailbox.

Dear, dear comrades!!!  I have not been back to the state since then.  What are our chances of fomenting a similar uprising and establishing a soviet Oklahoma today???

[JSngry]

If by "similar", you mean doomed to be a disastrous failure, I'd say your chances were better than excellent! 

Our Texanic Neighbor To The North, Our Panhandellic Partner, Our Crude Oil Companions, they just have all kinds of interesting things in their history!

[The Red Menace]

Hmm.  So the general populace is not yet ready to overthrow their capitalist overlords and establish the collectivized farming system of which I have long dreamed???  In that case, why do they call themselves "Sooners"???  It seems to me they should be called "Laters"!!! But yes, there is much surprising radical history to be found in many unexpected pockets of these United States!!!  In the meantime, back to "The Price Is Right."

Drew Carey is no Bob Barker. just as Gary Busey is no Jean Tripplehorn.

I suggest starting in the parking lot at Winstar, where you will find a large concentration of the oppressed worker masses whose pockets have been picked clean by surviving Native Americans, serving the dual purpose of providing a form of indirect reparations out of the pockets of the workers, authorized by the capitalist overlords in order to soothe their tiny nub of a conscience, and to provide the workers with the illusion of potential wealth.

Try going north on US-75 instead of I-35 and check out Chocktaw, in Durant.

Here's what you can see there: https://durantboxoffice.com/?msclkid=3c09bd45b71211319916e093790dd2c8&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Choctaw%20Casino%20Resort%20CQT-B&utm_term=%2Bdurant%20ok%20%2Bchoctaw%20%2Bcasino&utm_content=Choctaw%20Casino%20Resort

But no matter where you are in Oklahoma, you're OK for a Choctaw Experience: https://www.choctawcasinos.com/locations/

But Winstar, that's where you can go see Seinfeld do stand up (which is maybe one of my bucket list things?): https://hyloseats.com/venue/winstar-world-casino-tickets

Not also Trevor Noah!

What is the best highway route into Oklahoma City for a parade of T-34s???

[JSngry]

Forget about OKC, take the path of US-75 which at one point ran non-stop from Canada all the way down to the Gulf Of Mexico: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Route_75

Secure those borders!!!!!

Thank you, yes!!! The last time we attempted such an invasion things did not go so well.

I recently read that the Oklahoma border casinos are a problem for mid-size concert venues in Dallas, as they easily outbid the Dallas concert promoters and impose a contractual geographic covenant not to compete which includes Dallas.

I think your problem was lack of patience, organization and micro managing.
