Editor's note: We're preparing to move into a new building at the end of 2012, so we're taking inventory of everything in our current facility.  That includes thousands of hours of old videotape. We're finding some real treasures and we're sharing them here.

The rock band KISS performed at the BOK Center this week.  That inspired us to search our archive for stories about the band.

We found one, but it doesn't focus on the band, it focuses on four fans who got into a little trouble.

Rex Daugherty filed this report on June 15, 1978, about a talent show performance at Oologah High School that got four students paddled, a teacher upset and a superintendent shaking his head.
