That's going to be a SWEET venue! Guess I gotta come out that way for an Oilers game next year!

I will be making a visit to T-Town over Christmas and I will def have a looky at whats going on. Some of my friends up there are really excited. I believe that the arena will eventually be a great draw for a NHL team because of the quality that was put in to build it.

I hope you're right HT. I do think Tulsa could support an NHL franchise. The city has always been pretty big on hockey. Take a camera with ya! We want pics! We want pics! We want pics!

Nice pics...Its wonderful to see a jem in the making! It will most likely be the prettiest arena around.
Darn it...OKC will really have to step it up a notch if the city builds another arena!!

I'm sure OkC will be either upgrading their present Arena or building an entirely new one when they get an NBA team, which will be soon. You know what would be neat, and I don't know if you'd like the idea, but if the OkC NBA team played a game or two a year in the BOK Arena that would be cool. Kind of like what the Packers do with playing in Milwaukee every so often.

Oh ya..They will most certainly be playing some games in Tulsa. The owners will want to bring the state together to make more money.

Yep, I would definitely see it as a win win situation. You garner more fans that way. Even though most in round ball fans in Tulsa would root for them regardless. $$$$$$$!!!
