With hundreds of man-made lakes, state parks, casinos, museums and nightlife and dining opportunities in revitalized downtown areas in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, there is a lot to see and do in the Sooner State. The state is dotted with phenomenal lakes where swimming, boating and bass fishing are the most desired activities. Some of the state’s most popular lakes include Broken Bow Lake located near the Quachita Mountains; Grand Lake in the northeastern corner of the state at the foothills of the Ozark Mountains and Lake Murray in the hills in the southern part of the state.

The casino is really big and glitzy, and The Joint is an awesome concert venue attracting fairly big names at good ticket prices. The seats are great (since the venue is kind of small) and the sound is awesome, wherever you are seated. The only thing I don't like is that smoking is still allowed inside, but it seems like I might be in the minority about that. :)

It can get REALLY hot and humid in Oklahoma in the summer; especially when you have ran a half marathon, and this is a GREAT place to cool down and fill the remainder of the day with friends or family.

The Casino was clean and staff was wonderful. Had a great time. They had a grill and the chicken plate was so amazing. 4 huge chicken strips and gravy, French fries and Texas toast. It was pretty cheaply priced as well.
