THUNDER UP!
Plantation Village Nursing Center employees in Altus Annie Fowler (from left), Jimmy Elkins and Nancy Boone get ready to “Thunder Up” for the NBA finals. Residents also are holding watch parties and competing for Thunder T-shirts in bingo games. Oklahoma City may be a few miles away, but when the Thunder rolls, the rumble is felt throughout the state. The Oklahoma City Thunder ran away with Game 1 of the NBA Finals 105-94 last night, controlling the second half and rallying from a 13-point deficit to protect home court against the Miami Heat. Also, Oklahoma State Senate Staff shows their support for the Oklahoma City Thunder heading into game two of the NBA finals on Thursday.
