We think that to have the ultimate OU experience, one must partake in all or most of the following. They must visit the Ridges and learn all the haunted myths on campus. Go out on Halloween, try all the Athens food on Court Street including Burrito Buggy, and attend a show or concert at Memorial Auditorium. One should go to a sporting event, join an intramural sports team, work out at Ping, go see the Hawking River, and go to the bike path. Walk up Morton and Jeff Hill several times a day, and observe the drunken zombies on Mill Street leaving bars. Sit in a coffee shop such as Donkey, go ice skating at Bird Arena, see a movie at the Athena, ride the escalators in Baker, and buy spirit wear at the book store. Find the absolute cheapest textbooks possible. Go to a frat party, Bro. Eat a shooky (Shivley cookie), order pizza or DP Dough in the middle of the night, take an 8am class, and get a picture with Rufus. Hate on Miami, join the O Zone, and pull an all-nighter in Alden. Read graffiti while in the bathroom stall, attend Dave Rave or Dance or Die, find an Athens Brick, and touch a squirrel.
All in all, it is hard to put into words but there is no one event that can sum up the ultimate OU experience, you just have to come see it for yourself.

Don't just read the graffiti in the bathroom stalls--you should leave your own "mark" at OU.
