I grew up in the Texas Panhandle and knew many former Oklahomans. They're OK by me, outside of the RR game every year. Good people.

Oklahoma panhandle beats anything Arky has to offer imo

Arkansas offers Bayou Bartholomew, the longest Bayou in the world.
It has over 100 aquatic species of fish, making it the second most diverse stream in North America.

Did one of your fans not rip one UT fan’s testicles 3/4 off?
Do you not believe it when I told you I was shot at in McAlester?
I’ve several other stories like this.
Call me a clown but the stories are true

Sequoyah County, just across the State line of Arkansas, is the Meth Capitol of the world.

40 through Arkansas is nothing compared to Memphis or Nashville traffic. It's not even as bad as 30 through Arkansas.

SE Oklahoma is definitely southern. No 2 ways about it. I basically live there half the year.

South Oklahoma extends all the way to Dallas.

People from Oklahoma tell you southeast Oklahoma is southern. It’s nothing like the rest of the SEC footprint. Oklahoma and Texas are kind of their own thing. You’ll definitely notice some regional differences between OKC, Tulsa and SE Oklahoma if you explore it but they’re not really what I grew up to think of the south as as a New Orleans area baw

Ya, make dam sure as soon as you cross the Arkansaw River just East of Webber on I40 that you shut down your speed. Be a couple or three mile under the limit.
The corksucker Webber jackboots run four cars there. This for a town with 350 people.

Still not southern. More northern Mexico.

Texas dude was talking shite in a bar, like Texans tend to do. I don't condone what happened to him but angry drunks do things. My wife's family is from Arky, been to Cabot several times, they're from Jackson but apparently that town is a no go now. I was robbed in Hot Springs in 2009 but that doesn't stop me from going back, most people are good everywhere. Okies are nice unless you're talking shite on them or the state. Its easy to see why you struggle there.

I can stand on the roof of my car and see all of OKC. The districts are cool. But Tulsa feels like Stillwater, more debauchery and the people stay out later. Also closer to the lakes, more greenery. Tulsa is hillbilly and okc is redneck, from a Texans perspective.
And you could stick a person from Salulpa here and people would believe they’re from Alabama.

A caution, for anyone making the drive on I40, the traffic is absolutely the worst from Memphis to Little Rock due to a complete backup of tractor trailers. Be careful as some will pull out in front of you.
I drove from Atlanta to OKC several years ago and noticed this as well. Memphis to Little Rock was extremely rural and yet you couldn't go faster than 65 or so due to so many trucks in the left lane. Worst stretch of interstate I have driven anywhere in the South. Once you got to Little Rock, all the trucks seemed to split off towards Dallas and Little Rock to OKC was a great drive.

The trucks will take up both lanes for miles and when you finally have clearance to pass some of them, they quickly change lanes right in front of you and box you in for another 20 miles.

Replace Tennessee and Kentucky with Oklahoma and swap southwest with southeast and we could say the same.
