Oklahoma State Fair®. This year’s fair, which begins on Sept.

Oklahoma City.
“Verizon Wireless is proud to be associated with the Oklahoma State Fair
– an event that brings friends and family together from across
Oklahoma,” said Steven R. Smith, south central region president, Verizon
Wireless. “The Xtreme Bulls event promises to be among the highlights of
this year’s State Fair and Verizon Wireless is excited to be a part of
making it possible.”

In addition to its sponsorship of the rodeo, Verizon Wireless will have

and experience some of the many great products that are now available to
Verizon Wireless customers throughout Oklahoma.
On the fair’s closing weekend, Verizon Wireless will have a presence

Bulls events will be able to take part in a text-to-win contest
featuring Verizon Wireless-themed prizes.
