I was stopped by about 3 people asking me where I got the jersey from (which I looked at them kind of quizzically because doesn't every sports store in the malls in OKC have at least one of these jerseys?). Then I went to Target on 122nd and I had a guy stopped me in the parking lot and ask, "Are those the new colors?" Then I went to pick up my to go order at PF Changs and the to go girl was asking me about the team. I was very impressed that so many people had their radars set on this team. I think we will do just fine in the up coming years, as far as attendance goes. GO OKC TBD'S!!!!!!"

That pretty much sums up the atmosphere around here
