The University of Oklahoma is NOT called the Boomer Sooners; they are called the Sooners after the enterprising settlers who sneaked into Oklahoma Territory before the official start of the run at noon on April 22, 1889 (i.e., sooner than they should have). The boomers were a group (most notably David L. Payne, for whom Payne County, OK is named) who agitated for more than ten years for opening Oklahoma to settlement. The University of Oklahoma fight song, "Boomer Sooner," was fashioned after the Yale fight song, "Boola Boola" and the University of North Carolina fight song, "I'm a Tar Heel Born."
