We wave goodbye to baseball and hello to football this month – with a smattering of other exciting sporting events, too.
In Tulsa, equine lovers won’t want to miss the AMHR National Show on Sept. 4-13. There, you’ll see a bevy of the nation’s top miniature horses compete. Next, say farewell to the Tulsa Drillers as they round out their season Sept. 9-14 at ONEOK Stadium. On the flip side, the University of Tulsa’s football team kicks off its season on Sept. 13 and 27 at H.A. Chapman Stadium.
At OKC’s Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark, you can watch the last games of the OKC Comets on Sept. 9-14. Venture over to Riversport OKC for sunrise and sunset paddles to start or end your day peacefully, running Sept. 6, 13, 20 and 27. And if you just can’t wait for Halloween, head to Draper Park on Sept. 18 for the Spooky Sprint – a Halloween-themed 5K, 10K, half marathon or 1-mile fun run, perfect for the whole family.
It’s a mixed bag around the state. Head to 181 Ranch in Bixby on Sept. 6 for the Conquer the Gauntlet event – a challenging four-mile obstacle course and adventure race. Then, make your way to Pryor’s Creek Recreation Center for the Dam J.A.M. Bicycle Tour on Sept. 6. And, of course, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention OU and OSU football. OU plays at home – Norman’s Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium – on Sept. 6 and 20, and the Cowboys take the field at Stillwater’s Boone Pickens Stadium on Sept. 19 and 27.
