Aggravated assault charges have been filed against a church deacon and a University of Oklahoma Sooners fan after officials say he grabbed a University of Texas fan between the legs during a scuffle in an Oklahoma bar. A couple of months before the annual Red River Shootout between the Sooners and Longhorns, words were exchanged at Henry Hudson’s Pub between a Sooner fan/deacon and a Longhorn fan. Witnesses said it was because Longhorn fan was wearing a UT T-shirt.
The church deacon makes his living as a government auditor and had gone to the bar that night for one reason — to play darts.
This is serious stuff. I don’t know if you read what the actual attack on the guy was, but it required 60 very unpleasant stitches. At any rate, it just confirmed what we all think of Oklahoma anyway.
That’s why I just call it the University of Texas at Norman. That way I don’t have to harbor bad feelings toward that little school up north. Hee, hee.
As a Longhorn grad, member of the Longhorn Marching Band, and often enforcer to protect those little woodwind players from disgruntled or intoxicated fans… this is quite disturbing. The account made the rounds for a while without the deacon’s side of things, but umm… that’s just wrong–any fight would have been over long before it got to that. I will be a bit more careful going into my next deacon’s meeting. Hopefully, that’s not a part of the deacon’s training material from Lifeway!
As a Bulldog fan GO DAWGS, all i have 2say is we got Michael Vick that guy had it easy we would have put him in a pen and bet on which body part would have been consumed first.
Auburn fan here buddy…
And we Auburn fans are smarter than to play darts…
