For those of you out-of-towners, there’s a bridge right next to the arena that separates Bricktown from downtown. A lot of people park their cars in Bricktown, so there’s always a big crowd walking under that bridge after games.
Well, with the way Game 2 went down, there was a little bit of excitement in the air, and so Thunder fans staged a small celebration party right in the middle of Reno Avenue underneath the Bricktown bridge. Pretty awesome scene.
I would hardly call that a riot
I guess everyone has seen this Video, Beard like Harden song

Aint no riot till shit gits burnt up and people get fucked up. LA show you how to riot when we take the title.
@DudeBeAGangsta ^^dude be a gangsta - lookin like a fool
@DudeBeAGangsta We're all very impressed.
Hey Barkley, look! It's black people!
Super neat.
I'm sure he received a nice ticket for blocking traffic.
@Tronchaser Cops showed up after a while and dispersed the crowd. Actually kinda worried about if we do win the title and the city will respond. There were some fights breaking out on the street, but I'm sure it was just Laker/Thunder fans trash talking with each other.
I saw the cops pulling the convertable off to the side. Must have just missed it
Reminds me of the "Red Mile" outside the Saddledome in Calgary the last time the Flames made a playoff run... that spawned it's own website called "FlamesGirls" in various stages of undress. OKC is better than that. Right? ... Right??!!??
@ThunderBelize I guess that all kinda depends on how attractive those flamesgirls are...
@Jax Raging Bile Duct Take any typical mid to late twenty something female grouping and you'll get and idea...
I know where I'm going for game 5 (if there is one).
This is amazing. I apparently just missed it. As I walked under the bridge, I ran into a friend who told me what had just happened. Dang Loud City seats making me get out of the arena late and miss cool things!

Yeah. Not sure how this is a "riot." It looks like an impromptu party. Very different things.
thats sick.
I guess we have differing definitions of "riot."
I'm dizzy now! We hung back at the arena for a little bit after the game . . . by the time we reached the bridge there was only good-natured cheering and honking.
That s*** cray.
Well I think that makes it official that I won't be joining Thunder Alley anytime soon.
@Patrick OKC Well I think that makes it official that I will be joining Thunder Alley very soon!
@atha2k2 For most it would, I have a serious aversion to large crowds. Looked fun, just not fun for me.
