Now: how about the funniest moment in LNC history?

[NMSooner'80]

I've mentioned a few in the past:

- the "E" game (which Skyvue mentioned from the '78-79 season), when the OU students actually rallied behind a visiting player in an OU blowout - and booed his replacements when he was taken out of the game. The funny parts were when he'd get the ball and the students mimicked the "E..E..E..." chant of Washington Bullets fans when Elvin Hayes got the ball in the low post.
- of course, the Tubbs "no matter how terrible the officiating is...." comments on the PA system in '89 that turned around the OU-Mizzou game.
- Speaking of Mizzou, back in '81, every time the much-despised MU star Steve Stipanovich got the ball, OU students shot cap guns to make fun of the time he accidentally winged himself and lied about being shot by an intruder.
- I wasn't there, but my brother tells of the time when big-eared ISU center Sam Hill was being introduced before a game, and a student took some newspapers and flapped them behind his ears to imply that Hill's wings looked like the cartoon elephant Dumbo's.
- I can't remember which game it was when I was a student, but someone once donned the costume of the Grim Reaper with a small dummy - head in noose - dressed up to look like a referee.
- and I know I mentioned this one, but my senior-year roommate yelled out, "Hey Spaz!" when a guard from Midwestern State of Wichita Falls, was on the line shooting a foul shot. This was because he was out there resembling the hapless character from the '79 summer classic "Meatballs."

I'm sure there are others worth mentioning. Fire away!

Gotta think Sean Sutton's carp imitation has to be up there somewhere. Anybody have that gif?

Maybe in the top10. There was a bench warmer center Joe Seiger(spelling?) who pulled off his warmup at mop up time and had his jersey on backwards. Wayman laughed as loud as anyone in the LNC.

Not a Lloyd Noble, but when Drew Head dunked the ball on Larry Bird's head.

When Byron Eaton, his team up and about to win the game, tried to take a charge on Terrell Everett at midcourt and lost them the game. Freaking hilarious. He could have just sat down in the corner and OSU would have won.

NM Sooner you took a lot of good ones, but when Bill Self was at OSU back in the day, OU students made a fake newspaper on a huge piece of paper with the headline "Atkinson to Play with Self"

That was funny!

The guy who was the leader of the pep band used run out on the court during time outs. He was pretty funny.

Then there was the player who had his uniform shorts on backwards and he never noticed - oh wait that was a high school player when my daughter was in high school.

I can't believe I forgot this one - back in '93, the hated Pokes came to town and some OU students were in pretty good form. Someone got a huge piece of poster board and made a sign in honor of Bryant "Jethro" Reeves. It had an enlarged mugshot of Reeves with a blank look on his face, with the following information:

- NAME: Jethro
- HEIGHT: 6-12
- MAJOR: Cow-tippin'
- SIGNATURE: a big "X"

At the top of the poster board was the phrase: OSU I.D. - and they did it perfectly, with the "S" on there backwards.
