Arsenal Supporters In Oklahoma
Tulsa Gooners
The Tulsa Gooners is one of two Oklahoma Arsenal clubs and meet at George’s Pub in Jenks on match days. You can’t miss it. It’s painted in Arsenal colors.
Sooner Gooners
It rhymes nicely, but what does it mean?
Oklahoma is known as the Sooner State. Sooners was a nickname for settlers who arrived on the plains a bit sooner than they were supposed to. The Government hadn’t quite finished rounding up the natives and sticking them in reservations, but the Sooners sneaked in early so they’d have the pick of the best land. Cheats is a better word for them, but that doesn’t rhyme with Gooners and certainly doesn’t apply to this club. Head to Skinny Slim’s British pub in downtown Oklahoma City to meet up with the Sooner Gooners.

Portland is known as Soccer City USA. The emergence of the Portland Timbers MLS team has helped with that. The PDX Gooners are the Arsenal group covering Portland and the North West State of Oregon. They have the advantage of having their home base at Beulahland Coffee and Alehouse where the owner Jimmi Langen is an Arsenal fan so Gooners are especially well catered for.
