Police say a dead longhorn cow was found on the lawn of an Oklahoma State University fraternity on Friday, the day before the school’s football team plays the University of Texas Longhorns in the Big 12 championship game.
Police were notified just after 6:30 a.m. of the dead animal on the lawn of FarmHouse fraternity, according to Stillwater police Officer TJ Low.
The carcass had an expletive carved into its side and the stomach was cut open, according to the campus newspaper, The O’Colly.
“It’s a very cruel crime to be committed, especially right before the Big 12 Championship,” Low told The Oklahoman. “Nothing is worth doing that kind of crap.”
FarmHouse fraternity
I guess that part is appropriate.
Weird that Texas apparently sacrificed one of their own for this.
There are zero (0) Texas fans bothering to locate a frat house in Stillwater, OK and transport a longhorn there, much less even go to Stillwater
I interpreted it more as Okie State fans showing what’s going to happen to Texas.
I highly doubt it was someone from Texas. I will be trying to keep an eye on this though. I’m already angry that someone did this, I’m going to be livid if it was someone from Texas. The longhorn is one of Texas’ state animals; and even though it’s apparently not illegal to butcher one in Texas, if someone from Texas killed a longhorn like this I’m pretty sure they’d have a target on their back for the rest of their life.
I haven’t seen anyone mention it in this thread, but speculation is this is a feud between two Oklahoma State fraternities. They have been placing dead animals on each other’s property for months and this has nothing to do with the championship game. The longhorn apparently died on one of the students farms and they relocated it.
I can’t confirm any of this, just what I read elsewhere.
This explanation makes more sense… got a more up-to-date source?
Still fucked up, even more if there’s a history of dead animals.
Ah yes…Texas, where they care more about the rights of cattle than the rights of human women.
Bruh, A) Texans love longhorns. Again, it’s literally one of the state animals. B) you really think someone from UT is going to drive from Austin all the way up to OSU with a longhorn and kill it on the campus? That’s slightly over 1,000 miles (or +1700km). C) you can butcher a longhorn and eat it, but last I checked you can’t do that with women (and hopefully you never will).
I get it, “lol let’s make fun of the Texans for having a backwards government lololol”. I hate it too. Fuck though man, our major cities are blue and very much care about stuff like abortion and lgbt rights, but our state is ridiculously gerrymandered. It’s gonna be a while before we really have a chance to actually fix anything.
