12 Things You Really Hope Santa Brings Oklahoma For Christmas

Oklahoma is a great state but there are a few things we have on our wish list this Christmas to make it extra special. Here are 12 things that would be awesome if Santa brought them to Oklahoma this year:

1. A White Christmas.

Don't doubt it yet...Santa could work his magic.
2. More affordable healthcare.

And every Oklahoman insured with the best care possible.
3. A forever home for every Fido in an animal shelter.

How could you turn down a face like that?
4. Better pay for teachers.

We desperately need this one to come true.
5. An Ikea store because we are tired of driving to Texas.

I think Texas has enough of them now...time to move north Ikea.
6. Less tornadoes.

It might be out of the question to ask for no tornadoes, so how about just a few EF1's this year?
7. A national title for our OU Sooner's football team.

We are ready for number 8!
8. No state income tax would be nice.

We can admit it, we might be a little jealous of Texas on this one.
9. An In-N-Out Burger because it's just not fair.

Now that they are all over Texas, hopefully Oklahoma is next.
10. An NBA title for the Oklahoma City Thunder.

With Westbrook and Durant both healthy, we have a shot at it.
11. Fewer earthquakes.

Which probably means less fracking.
12. A mild summer.

Please, please Santa!

What would you ask Santa to bring to Oklahoma this year?
