Game day

Game day is a big part of Norman culture. Those of you still not sure why it is a big deal, I give a tentative idea.  The total population of Norman is approximately 110,000 and the football stadium we have at OU has capacity of 82,00 and it is always full in all games. Equal number of people do tailgate party around OU. That doubles the total city population. There is a big impact of that and Norman needs a great deal of preparation for that. Game day is sort of a festival. One thing I learned in my life, a festival is nothing without the community.  No matter how big the reason behind the festival, it is the community that brings a festival alive. So it's a big deal for Norman residents. I found it as an opportunity to try some street photography, so here are the photographs from last game day.
