12 Extremely Weird Things Only People From Oklahoma Do

From eating deep-fried bull testicles to running outside in a tornado, these 12 things scream Oklahoman! Yes, they're weird, but it's just what we do. Read on to find out if you've ever joined in on these quirky things people from Oklahoma do:

1. We make a big deal out of the world's largest peanut

Or so we thought it was. Oklahomans still falsely think it is the largest, but Georgia has one that towers over ours. However, this title and monument still sits in Durant and is a popular roadside attraction.

2. Schedule important events around college football

It's an unspoken rule that football fans in Oklahoma know.

3. We judge people based on whether they are an OU or OSU fan

We all know this happens. If you're a crimson-and-cream-wearing Okie, you cringe when you see orange walk in a room and vice versa.

4. We eat deep-fried bull testicles thinking they are a delicacy

Since cattle ranching is prevalent and castration of young animals is common, Oklahomans just eat away at this common appetizer dish - also known as calf fries.

5. We give directions based on where all the QT's are along the way

And our driving directions are given in minutes, not miles.

6. We declared the watermelon as our state vegetable

Who was the genius responsible for this?

7. We call ALL soda Coke

With the exception of the the far east side of the state, the conversation usually goes like this, "Can I get you a Coke?" "Yes, I'll take a Sprite."

8. We believe everything is better deep fried

Because it is.

9. We buy excessive amounts of bug spray as if we lived in the Amazon

Mosquites - Oklahoman's worst enemy (after the Texas Longhorns).

10. We run outside instead of inside when we hear tornado sirens

We know we're not supposed to, but we all do it.

11. We get really excited when we see fellow Oklahomans on TV or in movies

From Blake Shelton to Brad Pitt to Phil McGraw, Oklahoma is the birthplace of many Hollywood A-listers.

12. We laugh about being from Oklahoma

But don't worry, we're not ashamed. We do it to keep people out of our beautiful state. It might not be perfect, but it's home sweet home! So all of these weird things about Oklahoma, just make things more interesting.

People from Oklahoma have been known to do some odd things, but that doesn't mean we'd do anything differently. If you have been living in Oklahoma, what are some strange things about Oklahoma that you have noticed?

On a similar note, you'll only understand these photos if you are a true Oklahoman. Kinda like an Oklahoma City beer-tasting bike tour - is it a good idea? We don't care.
