Why Do Kids Lose Their Minds At Arcadia’s Round Barn On Route 66? Climb Up And See

Most barns are boxes with a roof on top, but one barn on Route 66 refused to follow the rules back in 1898. It is round, it is red, and its upstairs ceiling looks like a giant woven basket flipped upside down. Kids race up the steps to the loft...

That single order tells you a lot about this family-run Mexican spot in Oklahoma. The meal starts with free chips, salsa, queso, and warm tortillas. It ends with a free sopapilla.

Nebraska softball star Jordy Frahm signs with AUSL ahead of 2027 season

One of the top players in women’s college softball last season will make her debut in the professional ranks in 2027. The Athletes Unlimited Softball League announced Thursday, Nov. 12 that former Nebraska star Jordy Frahm has signed with the Oklahoma City Sparks for the upcoming season. Back in June, Frahm — formerly Bahl — announced that she played in the Women’s College World Series while she was pregnant and elected to not play in AUSL last season. The Spark selected her with a provisional pick in the 2026 draft. Just before the Women’s College World Series began last May, Frahm was named National Player of the Year by USA Softball. A superb two-way player, no other player aside from Frahm in the country last season had a batting average north of .400 and an ERA below 1.40.

Harold Hamm, Continental Resources settle shareholder suit for $60M

An Oklahoma County district judge has approved a $60 million settlement resolving a four-year class action shareholder litigation over Continental Resources founder Harold Hamm’s 2022 transaction that took the company private. The order on Tuesday, Nov. 10, concludes a major legal dispute surrounding the downtown Oklahoma City-headquartered energy giant. The lawsuit began when Continental shareholder Walter T. Doggett filed a challenge to Hamm’s takeover proposal. Continental had been publicly traded since 2007, with Hamm and his family holding an approximately 83% controlling stake. In June 2022, Hamm submitted an initial, nonbinding proposal to acquire Continental’s remaining public shares for $70 each. The buyout was formally announced on Oct. 17, 2022, and closed on Nov. 22 of that same year, after the purchase price was raised to $74.28 per share. More: Continental Resources signs deal to develop Venezuela's Orinoco Belt Hamm’s attorney Mike Burrage said the lawsuit was premature when it was filed. He said Hamm’s initial offer was nonbinding and subject to review by a special committee of the board of directors. He called it “speculation” at the time. As the litigation evolved into a class action lawsuit, plaintiffs challenged the process and the final price of the take-private transaction,

Del City leader: Sell Oklahoma County jail land, renovate old facility

With the proposed jail sales tax defeated , Oklahoma County should scrap its plans and sell the land and nearly complete Behavioral Care Center at 1901 E. Grand Blvd., Del City Council member Scott Tatom said. The proceeds could be used with other funds − but not a hike in property taxes − to renovate the old jail downtown, Tatom told the Board of County Commissioners at its meeting on Nov. 10. It was the board's first session since the Nov. 3 election led to a pending paradigm shift in county criminal justice reform efforts. By most accounts, voter opposition to the sales tax proposal led to the change, not just the "blue wave" of Democrats coming into office nationally. The tax went down with 63.3% opposed. More: Oklahoma County voters soundly defeat jail sales tax Activist Chris Johnston again on Nov. 10 called for dissolution of the Criminal Justice Authority, the public trust that governs operation of the old jail at 201 N. Shartel Ave., and turning the jail over to the Sheriff's Office. "We don't just hand the sheriff the keys. We create a realistic hand-over process," he said, and build back community trust.
