Duncan man moves to Tulsa for work and finds much more

By Abby Hickman

Growing up in Duncan, just miles north of the Texas and Oklahoma border, Duane Harris moved to Tulsa three years ago to work at a local trucking company, but found love, friendship and happiness also.

After a year in northeast Oklahoma, Harris met his girlfriend who is a student at the University of Tulsa. Since they met two years ago, he has attended countless TU basketball and football games. He love taking his son, Malachi Harris, to the games. Malachi has previously been featured on the "Simba cam" during TU basketball games.

Harris enjoys spending his free time at local restaurants such as “Tacos Don Francisco,” “Tally’s CafĂ©” and “Ted's Cafe Escondido.” He considers “Woody’s Corner Bar” the best bar in downtown Tulsa.


When asked about future plans, Harris quickly said, “I’m not leaving Tulsa, ever.” His love for Tulsa does not sway his dedication towards the Oklahoma Sooners. The Sooners have his loyalty, but Tulsa seems to have his heart.
