Oklahoma, America – Where You’re Free to Love Your Jeep
This Saturday, July 6, Jeep lovers from all across the state are gathering for another year of celebrating Medicine Park's Jeeplahoma event.
The free event is open to all ages and doesn't require any entry fee for those wanting to share the spotlight.
Jeeps are popular in Oklahoma, being one of the states for the most Wranglers per capita, according to hedgescompany.com.
"For 2007-2023 JK, JKU, JL and JLU the states with the most Wranglers per capita are Oklahoma, followed by Michigan, New Hampshire, Wyoming and New Jersey."

This year's Jeep lovers get-together is the 5th year in a row. In the past, they've had some semblance of a parade and, of course, live music. The event is taking place during the Rockin' the Park live music festival.
While you're admiring everyone's Jeeps, you'll probably find yourself wondering about the rubber duck trend. According to social media, the rubber duck trend started with late Allison Parliment and her act of kindness.
