In the late summer of 2018, a mysterious, circular metal ring emerged from the ground on the eastern-edge of downtown Oklahoma City. Paying homage to our city's fine initials, it was quickly given a name – The OKC Cock Ring.
Since then, the monument has quickly climaxed into one of Oklahoma City's most popular and visible works of public phallic art. It has also grown a shaft:
Yep, they erected a 10-foot tall shaft to tower over the OKC Cock Ring. Now they just need to add a couple of boulders to the base and a statue of Serge Ibaka to the top and it will complete.
Because we are A) immature and B) strongly feel the OKC Cock Ring should be celebrated, we've partnered with our friends w/ benefits at Patricia's – The Official Adult Boutique of The Lost Ogle and your Valentine's Day Headquarters – to launch the $250 OKC Cock Ring Selfie Contest.
Here's a breakdown of how the contest works. For fun, we've also included tasteful sample photos snapped by Rai of Sunshine and Piccadilly Porter of the Dust Bowl Dolls – OKC's best and longest-running burlesque group...
1. Now through February 22nd, simply go to the OKC Cock Ring – it's pinned here on Google Maps – and share a selfie on Instagram or Twitter using the #OKCCockRing hashtag. To make sure we see it, you can also tag (@thelostogle) or email us the photo.
2. The TLO / Patricia's Selection Committee will choose five to ten finalists based on originality, effort, humor and other subjective factors we value...
3. We'll share the photos on TLO and let our readers vote for their favorite. The person who submits the winning photo will take home $250 cash. Yep, that's right – $250! Second and third places get Patricia's Prize Packs.
The selfies and photos can be as smart or stupid or sexy or stylish or weird or funny as you want. Have fun with it. But we should clarify: Selfies that depict A) nudity B) people committing a crime or breaking the law and C) Marla Morgan are not eligible to win. That being said, you should still probably submit them to us, just to be safe.
Anyway, this is probably the smartest or dumbest idea we've ever had. I think we'll know for sure in a couple of weeks. We'd like to thank Patricia's for sponsoring this competition — and the city, for being just oblivious enough to allow the OKC Cock Ring to grow. We look forward to seeing your photos, and don't forget about the shaft...
