Go deep into Oklahoma's spooky past for "Oklatober" as we visit the Garland Cemetery in McCurtain County, home to the state's oldest known gravestone (birthdate 1773) belonging to Sophie Pitchlynn, mother-in-law of Choctaw Chief Samuel Garland. Discover its fascinating, creepy history rooted in the Choctaw Nation and the plantation era. Plus, after the break: We keep it light and loud with the viral sensation of the OSU "Shirtless Section"! Find out why these Oklahoma State football fans were named ESPN's Fans of the Week for their wild energy at Boone Pickens Stadium, proving that true Cowboy loyalty never loses its spirit (or its shirt!).
