Editor's note: We're about to move into a new building, so we're taking inventory of everything in our current one. We've found all kinds of interesting old stories and we're sharing the best of them here.

In scouring the video vault, we found a lot of stories we had done on famous folks who have stopped by Tulsa over the years.
