Get the door, it's the liquor store

Oklahoma is a state best-recognized for football, fossils and the musical that shares its name. You’ve no doubt heard of the University of Oklahoma’s football team, the Sooners, but do you know where these crimson and cream-clad footballers get their name? It’s time for a quick history lesson: in the... 19th century, Americans looking to build a life out west participated in an actual race to claim land (there was even a pistol to start the competition). The overly enthusiastic participants who literally jumped the gun were denoted as “Sooners.” Today, the name is synonymous with individuals who possess that same positive energy and zealous spirit.  Oklahomans don’t beat around the bush, a characteristic best illustrated by the state’s official drink (a glass of milk) and cuisine (which includes cornbread, chicken-fried steak and pecan pie). Drizly feels the same way — skip all the bells and whistles and use one simple website or app to stock your next tailgate. Drizly delivers in less than an hour, partnering with over 10 bottle stores throughout the Sooner State. See what’s available at your local muni, and Drizly will jump the gun to deliver. Read More
