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.”
Sounds to me like it had nothing to do with Texas or the upcoming game and everyone is jumping to conclusions. It sounds more likely to have been done by another frat at the same university. It was dumped on the lawn of a frat called FarmHouse. I went to a high school that all the other schools referred to as “hick high” because we had an agriculture program (attended by maybe 20 people in a school of 3000). It’s something people like to pick on for some reason.
Looking around elsewhere it appears to be a part of an escalating ‘prank’ war between two frats with terrible timing
