The votes have been tallied, and the first annual Ogle Madness is in the books. The winner, by a margin of anywhere between 2 and 16 votes** is KOKH morning show reporter (?) Lauren Richardson.
**The exact count is a bit hazy. There were more than a couple enterprising people attempting to stuff the ballot box for both of the candidates (Amy McRee, for instance, has a big fan at the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, Richardson at the United States Postal Service). In any event, we are fortunate that this is Clark Matthews' specialty (surprisingly, he has one) and Lauren is the winner by a slim but clear margin.
Richardson's rise to the top has been meteoric, as she wasn't even known to any of us when we started this blog eleven months ago. Patrick in particular is proud of Richardson's achievement, as he first brought her to the public consciousness last August. When informed of the results, Pat broke down into tears of pride. He also ate a burrito. But that was just because he was hungry. It didn't have anything to do with Ogle Madness.
In recognition of Lauren Richardson's victory, The Lost Ogle is excited to present her with these three prizes:
1. One free Lost Ogle t-shirt
2. One free pink bikini
3. Enshrinement in The Lost Ogle Hall of Fame
If you are Lauren Richardson and would like to collect these prizes, just shoot us an e-mail (thelostogle at gmail dot com) or a MySpace message. If you are not Lauren Richardson, better luck next year.
