Here for gymnastics vs Denver. The hospitality didn't disappoint. $2 beers... If not doing Dry January - I would have loved to quench my thirst. The worker's had smiles on their faces and had good vibes. I even said yes to the daughters and bought a couple pom poms (small wristlet ones) $30+ Kona ice for the win on staying open later... Ice cream that one daughter wanted closed by the time we got over there. The place had clean bathrooms and were easy to find. Popcorn came in a big bag and smelled good. The music was loud enough but not overpowering. The kids zone was a big hit from my two toddlers. I hope to return for another event here. They did a great job...

Came to this stadium for a basketball game. The stadium is nice and clean. However, the numbering on the sections is a bit hard to find for first-timers. Also, the concession selection is a bit slim. read more

This was our 2nd time visiting the facility. The first was 2 years ago. The center is very big. Thankfully there are outdoor signs to help you navigate where you need to go. There are multiple gyms in the facility as well as photos of Sooner greats past and present. The center was clean and those who were at the facility when we were there were welcoming, friendly, and helpful. We look forward to visiting again. read more

Take the team allegiances and memories out of it and this arena is no better than 3 stars at its best. It shows its age and the layout is not ideal. The baseboards in one of the restrooms were peeling off the wall with mold or mildew behind it. The concession options are a plus and the video boards are satisfactory. Seems unlikely OU will get a new arena anytime soon so if you want to see the Sooners at home, you'll have no choice but maybe someday... read more

It has been a while since I have seen a college sporting event. The moment I walked in I was in love. From our seats I could see well, the audience interaction was great. The food and pricing.... ouch. But, that is to be expected. There is a clear bag policy here. So keep that in mind if you come here. It was so clean and well kept. We plan to return sooner than later. read more

Since I'm Sooner Born and Sooner Bred, I've attended my fair share of events at LNC. I've always had fun seeing the Sooners play here, no matter who we're playing or what the outcome of the game is. Parking is easy, getting in from any entrance is smooth, and the venue is always spotlessly clean. We didn't visit any concessions this visit, but when I have had concessions here they've been good. All the folks working and volunteering here are polite and friendly, and it makes me happy to see our team has so many boosters and supporters. We have (for the most part) good fans who don't heckle these young players too much. I think having an NBA team in the city has helped raise interest in basketball, and overall awareness of the sport, knowledge of the rules and the terminology. If you haven't checked out LNC lately, you're due for a visit! read more

I admit the building is a bit of a dated eyesore but it still does its job. Parking is easily accessibility, there's not a bad seat in the house, and who doesn't love the Sooners? Lloyd Noble is a fun intimate time. It's compatible in size to the UMAC or your average small - medium size university arena. All of the concessions are on the top circle of the arena and that could be an annoying pain if your seats are close to the floor. I wouldn't recommend concessions though. It's your typical overpriced game good. The events that are here are men's basketball, women's basketball, gymnastics, and wrestling. If you haven't gone for a game you definitely should! The pregame stuff is amazing and the Sooners always put on a good show! read more

I bleed Crimson- but this place has to go!! The lower levels/rings are great to view basketball. But awful if you want to hike up to the bathroom or the concessions. The upper levels have easier access- but honestly it is nose bleed city. And then we come to the bane of existence for all Sooner Basketball fans- the parking. I cannot imagine a setup that makes a larger cluster out of getting people in and out of an arena. Half the fun of a game is watching the prisoner dilemma among fans about when to leave the game to escape the hell of parking. Add to that the mad dash up the stairs and you have entertainment that some years rivals our team. read more

Great floor seats (FOR $5!!) to watch the University of Oklahoma 22 ranked ladies basketball team put a game winning 15 point whooping on the 6TH ranked University of Texas ladies basketball team. I loved the entire game especially the make out cam! Great seats, kids zone drinks, sandwiches, snacks, face painting, balloon artist, custom fan posters, and free athlete posters with in person autograph signing sessions after the game ALL FOR NO CHARGE!! Halftime magic show that I still can't figure out how they made the beautiful assistant to disappear not once but twice. I STILL CANT FIGURE OUT HOW THEY DID THAT! They had the OU band there and their music was great!! Beautiful venue, clean modern bathrooms, good refreshment, food, and snack stand. Cheerful, helpful, and efficient staff to include security searching upon entry and keeping an eye out during the game. I felt relatively safe and secure. I'd still like a weapon wand ran over everyone instead of just searching hand bags. All in all a fantastic afternoon of entertainment for the entire family for only $5 a piece. With the free children's sandwiches and drinks and snacks, it was a very cheap outing! read more

The Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium

I made it to my first ever College Football Playoff game here at Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial…read moreStadium and it was a terrific experience! This past Friday night - 12/19/25, Norman, Oklahoma was the center of the college football universe as the Sooners hosted Alabama in the #8 vs. #9 game of the playoffs. I found my ticket on SeatGeek for $345 in Section 233, Row 24, Seat 6. This was the last row in the upper deck on the visiting side of the stands. It wasn't too high up (imo). I still had a bird's eye view of the action. I will say...for this impromptu playoff game that gets organized by a committee of football "experts" who's sole responsibility is to select the 12 most deserving football schools into the tournament, I immediately bought my ticket after the schedule was announced. Did I have FOMO anticipating ticket prices could skyrocket higher? YES. But being from Florida, I had to purchase airfare and a rental car ASAP, and it felt reassuring to lock in a ticket as well since there was no turning back, but my point is...prices actually significantly decreased throughout the week and a half leading up to the game. Now 24 hours prior to kickoff, my $345 seat was selling for $190. Oh well stuff like this occasionally happens, but...these college playoff games get scheduled so last minute during the holiday season that it's very possible fans may have alternative family plans, and I'd just suggest future playoff attendees being patient when searching for their tickets. I really liked Gaylord Family Stadium. It opened in 1923 and has a capacity of 80,000. But for a 102 year old stadium, it's in great shape and the energy for this playoff game had a fever pitch. Kickoff was 7pm (central time zone) and they allowed fans inside at 5pm. Outside the stadium, they had a "Party at the Palace" featuring food vendors, tailgates, fans taking photos, music and even four F-35 fighter jets flying over the festivities. ESPN's College Gameday crew had their pregame show live on campus. For parking, there was a garage connected to Gaylord Stadium. Other lots nearby charged $40. I arrived early and parked for free on a side street 1 mile away and walked to the game. I'd also like to point out that the entrance off West Lindsey Street is a worthwhile photo opportunity. This area has statues dedicated to famous Oklahoma coaches like Bob Stoops and Barry Switzer. From the coaches dedications area, if you walk to the righthand side of Gaylord Stadium, you'll find Heisman Row with even more statues of Sooners Heisman Trophy winners like Kyler Murray, Sam Bradford and Baker Mayfield. Viewing these historic shrines had me thinking how rich Oklahoma's football roots are. Another nice picture moment was in front of the end zone located beside the "Party at the Palace". Here they had large SOONERS letters to stand in front of for a fun family photo. My favorite moment of the game was Oklahoma's team introductions. It was a sight to see! They turned out the lights and the deejay pumped up the crowd. Then as Sooners players entered the field, an abundance of fireworks exploded from both end zones and from behind Oklahoma's home stands. It was thrilling. I had goosebumps and couldn't believe the abundance of fireworks like a pinnacle July 4th moment. I'll post a quick video of it along with this review. It was the highlight of my night, lol. The Pride of Oklahoma Band was outstanding as well and put on an entertaining halftime performance. Also during halftime, an exciting drone light show showcased everything associated with Oklahoma football including a Boomer Sooner formation, an OU sign formation and a horse and carriage formation, to name a few. At the end of the 3rd quarter, there was a performance by the rapper, 50 Cent, while more fireworks lit up the night's sky. It was an energetic way to begin the 4th quarter. Not sure if 50 Cent will return in the future, lol, but him showing up was memorable. Overall, the football game was competitive. Oklahoma jumped out to a 17 - 0 lead. Alabama tied it at 17 - 17 by halftime. Unfortunately Alabama pulled away in the 2nd half to win 34 - 24 and fellow fans I sat next to and got to know a little about unfortunately went home unhappy. I felt bad because they were nice people and it was easy to recognize how passionate they were about their Sooners. Still, for just being a neutral fan of college football, I got to live out a dream attending my first ever CFP game, regardless of the outcome. I traveled halfway across the country to experience it all and for that, I am grateful. Thank you for having me Oklahoma, and Boomer Sooner!

He has Parkinson's Disease and climbing stairs puts him at his limits. There were many helping hands to get him to his seat. Anyway, we can't wait to return to Ou for another game.

This is a good place for entertainment at University of Oklahoma - good people, good times and great experiences. I was a bit early and got introduced to these owners and it was the begining of the wonderful experience. - I had the delicious house Pineapple punch with rum which was excellent and just one glass put a "buzz in my turban" - I got to see the menu and noticed a yummy array of food but did not eat as I had already eaten my dinner! Will be there tomorrow to eat! - The ambience of the place reflects on the warmth and friendly nature of the ownership! The bar was well stocked and well kept, the premises were very clean and there was a sense of pride in what was being done. The outside patio was very charming! - The service was impeccable and as I mentioned in the earlier paragraphs there could not be a friendlier place! Thank you Addi, Lane, Eli, Sarah, Ethan and Julius for looking after me so well. You people are going to go places. To summarize, I had an excellent experience on the above these three categories and I will be going to the dance party on the 3rd!! I strongly recommend this venue for anybody's entertainment needs and a place to get together with friends! As far as entertainment- there was an out of state "modern country western band," Tommy Goodroad and his band, and it was their first gig in Oklahoma. It was excellent stuff played by a very talented band with the artists playing a whole spectrum of originals and cover music. Hope to see you all at the Opolis sometime soon. Have a great weekend!!

We spent about three hours exploring Mix-Tape and still felt like we could have discovered even more. Every room is filled with hidden details, secret passageways, interactive elements, music, lights, and artwork that constantly encourages you to slow down and look a little closer. The experience is whimsical, nostalgic, and surprisingly thought-provoking all at the same time. One of the things I appreciated most was learning about the mission behind Factory Obscura. The exhibit isn't just beautiful--it was created by local artists who are supported for their work. Knowing that the installation continues to evolve with contributions from more than 100 artists made me appreciate every room even more. As a travel photographer, I loved photographing the exhibit. Every corner offered a completely different color palette, texture, or composition. The special diffraction glasses they provide make the lighting even more magical, so don't skip using them while you explore. My advice? Wear comfortable shoes, plan for at least 2-3 hours, and don't rush through it. Open every drawer, look through every little window, touch everything you're allowed to touch, and if you're able, crawl through the hidden passages--you'll discover details most people walk right past. Whether you're traveling with kids, visiting as a couple, hanging out with friends, or exploring solo, Factory Obscura is one of the most creative and memorable attractions we've experienced. It's colorful, imaginative, and unlike anything else in Oklahoma City. We left inspired and would absolutely visit again the next time we're in town.
