Jeffrey Landrigan's Last Words before Execution: "Boomer Sooner"

[El Supremo]

:wow:

Many a true fan has loudly -- and sometimes drunkenly -- proclaimed that they will fight for and support their team until the last breath is ripped from their body. One man last night grabbed that "stay true to your school" concept and spooned the hell out of it as he lay strapped to his highly-lethal and heavily-guarded deathbed.

Jeffrey Landrigan was scheduled to be executed Tuesday night for the 1990 armed robbery and strangulation of an Arizona man. Landrigan had escaped from an Oklahoma prison in 1989, where he was already serving time for second-degree murder.

Somewhere, the whole of Sooner Nation is cringing in unison at the thought that their beloved fight song will now be a national headline/punchline for the next couple of days because some scumbag decided to remain a dyed-in-the-wool superfan until the last possible second. Or they'll be giving it a big, hearty thumbs down. One of the two.

1. "Boomer Sooner" is an, er, adaptation of Yale's "Boola Boola"

perhaps Gee Dubya Bush '68 will emulate Landrigan if and when he is ever brought up on war crimes charges?

2. He should have sung this part:

I'm a Sooner born
And a Sooner bred,
And when I die
I'll be Sooner dead.

Rah, Oklahoma! Rah, Oklahoma!
Rah, Oklahoma! O-K-U!

Ahhhhhhhhh.......
