Ended up not staying in Norman for fear of winning or losing and starting some kind of race war. Elected to stay in OKC :dunno:. Any recommendations around the Bricktown area?
:cheers:

Wormy Dog is pretty good. Damn good if the act is right.

I'm pretty much the expert on this.
Def stay at the major hotel brand of your choice that is right in or adjacent to Bricktown. DO NOT select a hotel called "Bricktown Inn" or something like that - not in Bricktown, super weird.
You'll be getting there really late on Saturday, so if you're planning on eating someplace nice there, do it Friday. Mickey Mantle's and Nonna's are elite.
The official goEMAW bar is JJ's Alley. They have a pak head on display there still. You may find the Situ-Injun there as well. Biting Sow is fantastic as well, especially if you'd like to pick up a late night BBQ Beef combo dog.
NOW, be aware that the cops are nazis. They enforce public intoxication laws on people WALKING from the bar district (designed to attract tourists) to their hotels a block away. If one of them rounds you up and throws you in the concentration camp (the public inebriate alternative or "drunk tank"), you're going to want to chat the eff out of the guard, Vonda. She's supposed to hold you for 12 hours, but a little charm will have you out in 4.

Make sure to get a picture of the PAK head at JJ's Alley and tweet it to us. tia.

Good choice. Norman is the biggest shithole in the Big 12.
