    Oklahoma was the last US state to officially declare Christmas a holiday in what year?

    Question #15199. Asked by Bill. (Dec 20 01 10:39 PM)


    Tabby Tom

    		Practically all the websites say 1907. See, for example:

    http://www.uah.edu/News/insightdec42000/
    http://www.didyouknow.cd/xmas/xmashistory.htm

    But this one says 1890:

    		The one that says 1890 would not be correct as Oklahoma didn't become a state until 1907.

    Oklahoma is sometimes called the Sooner State. The Sooners are the people who cheated and crossed the starting line for the Land Rush of 1889 before the cannon was fired. The Boomers were the people who followed the rules. All are 89'ers.
