Hey, guys-
First, I come in peace. In fact, you'll find that OU fans are a relatively friendly bunch. Maybe too friendly.
I have been a member over at SoonerScoop.com since 2004 when I started at OU, so I know how the boards game goes. I am also co-owner (with my three siblings and mom) and Managing Partner of The Standard in Norman (The Standard Website). We opened our restaurant/bar October 2022 in Downtown Norman, which is a little over a mile to the stadium. 48 beers on tap (primarily Oklahoma breweries, but also a few domestics), fully stocked bar, burgers, wings, fried green tomatoes, etc. 4,000 sq ft of interior beer hall in a former auto body shop with another 5,600 sq ft of outdoor patio/beer garden (the weather will be great this weekend). It’s been a fun ride and happy to bring another good spot to Norman, where 3 of the 5 of us call home.
I am reaching out to invite any Gamecocks into our house. It's a great spot to not only pregame (Friday night and on Gameday - opening at 10 AM), but also to watch the game and given the 11:45 AM kickoff postgame. We have 9 TVs throughout the restaurant ranging from 68" to 85".
Sidenote: Confidence is low here in Norman through 6 weeks. Feeling good about our defense for the first time in at least a decade, but our offense is both decimated by injuries and seemingly inept. It could be a long road with the rest of the schedule, but hopefully we put up a fight. Either way, we are glad to be in the SEC where some real football is played and hopefully iron sharpens iron over time.
Enjoy Norman and please reach out my way at [email protected] if you want any additional recs while you're here!
