    Thank you for showcasing my hometown 🥰 OKC is truly one of the coolest, most eclectic places in the country; it's like the best kept secret of the Heartland! ❤️❤️❤️
  • @SmallnomesB1893
    I love that y’all loved OKC. It’s a unique place with wonderful people and I’m proud to call it home. Thank you so much for highlighting our small big city 😍
  • @terrystrom2385
    Never had a desire to visit OKC but after watching your video it is now on our list of “have to” places to visit. ❤
  • I live in OKC and wanted to thank you for showcasing us. I have lived here most of my life and even I learned about some new things to see and eat! I was at Factory obscura a few months ago and it's changed just since I went - they are a sister company to a group of museums called MEOW WOLF - I highly recommend any of their exhibits if you enjoyed factory obscura - I have been to the one in Nevada, and Colorado and am planning a trip to hit up the one in Vegas and the new ones in Texas soon. When you come back to OKC , definitely check out the Botanical gardens, the banjo museum, and OKCMOA to see the glass art (and the restaurant). You should also look into some of the live theater groups here and see if anything is playing when you come back through - Or the improv bar. I haven't seen your channel before but will have to check you guys out. Thanks again!

    From a Northern Californian who grew in Oklahoma many years ago - Thank You for an amazing tour of OKC. OKC has come light years ahead of when I first visited in 1989 - just before they built the Bricktown Canal. The additions of Scissortail Park, the Boathouse District and many other attractions around the City have made this city a destination. I hope to make it back to Oklahoma and OKC in 2023 to see the beautiful new additions (was there last in 2017). Great to see Oklahoma City truly on the rise!!!
  • @codysmith7872
    I've lived in Oklahoma my whole life. it doesn't seem like much to me. I'm used to it. But watching your video made me realize how thankful I am to live here. its so beautiful. I appreciate the video. I needed to see this. God Bless.
  • Thanks for coming to OKC! Glad y’all enjoyed! Come back soon!
  • It makes me so happy when you guys work with cities because you are always so enthusiastic about your adventures and I leave the video with a new destination added to my (ever growing) list. I hope more cities work with you in the future because you truly do a wonderful job of capturing the excitement of visiting! We appreciate how much work you put into these videos.

    I was in OKC for a year, organizing a business, learning the area, and training staff. As a lifelong Texan, I came to really love Oklahoma. Automobile alley has a few of our clients, and there's lots of great places to eat. Pretty sure I have had pizza at one of the places you visited. We also provide some services for Oklahoma Tower, that big stunning building downtown.
  • @Rikrik1138
    I can completely relate to how you felt at the OKC monument, as I felt something similar at ground zero in New York when I visited there in 2011. It was such a somber moment. The entire area just has a heavy spirit that can emotionally overwhelm you. The moment it fully hit me that I was standing near the exact spot where 3000 Americans lost their lives, I crumpled to the ground and wept. Such a powerful moment in my personal history, and I don’t know why I’m sharing it just to say that I can appreciate how you must have felt in this moment.
  • As a born and raised okie, I genuinely appreciate the tour! Y’all showed places that I’ve never been to! Thank y’all so much for your support here in OKC!
  • @SL_BA
    So much to see in OKC. We did an overnight there about 2 years ago and we stayed in the Bass Pro parking lot which was right next to the Centennial Land Run Monument. It was gorgeous in the sunrise the next morning. And we also visited the Oklahoma City National Memorial. So very somber, but an absolutely gorgeous Memorial.
  • Glad y’all found the more mountainous parts of my home state. There are many truly beautiful scenic areas of the Sooner state that most folks don’t realize exist. You even stayed in the exact same camp site at Talimena State Park where we stayed a couple of years ago. Come back anytime!!
  • Thank you guys so much for the wonderful tribute and showcase to our city! This is my home, and it's really nice to see just a few of the highlights shown to the world. Many people are surprised to find so many great things here. I hope this spreads a message of positivity to any who doubt how wonderful it is here, and if you are out there on the fence about whether to come here or not, please do. You will be pleasantly welcomed, always. Cheers and love, - Jim
  • @no3ll3.
    This video is one of my favorite you guys have made recently! I would have never thought there was so much to do and see in OKC. The indoor skiing looked like so much fun, I didn't know that was even a "thing." All of the food looked so good, and the art was awesome. Definitely earned it's #1 spot.
  • @richardwells675
    Great video again. We hadn’t ever really considered visiting Oklahoma but now we are actively looking into it, it looks great! Thank you
  • @kituwahband
    OKC was named one of the best cities to retire in a few years back because of all the things to do, and Bricktown is the place to be!! Glad yall enjoyed it
  • I’m glad you liked it in OKC! My husband and I moved here in 2017 and thought it would a temporary living arrangement. But it quickly grew on both of us and now we want to make this our forever home. Thanks for showing some of the things OKC has to offer. I think most people would be surprised at how many cool things are here. ❤️
  • Born and raised Okie here…. Thank you for showcasing my home! Y’all are welcome back anytime!! I really appreciate you experiencing the National Memorial. April 19, 1995— A day I will never, ever forget 😢 😭
