TOUR & INTERVIEWS
In an exclusive tour (including interviews) of the Equinox facilities, OU Esports is excited to bring you a video produced by exiting Media Lead Stingray Schuller! As seen in a previous tweet by Equinox, the Zipchair Gaming Chairs are visible, in addition to interviews from Chris Aguilar, Connor Knudsen.
The 6000 square foot facility includes spaces for offices, performance, and other structures to host events with in-house production — including room for streaming personalities and other content creators. Eventually open to the public, Covid-19 has put a hamper on plans, but as progress in this area continues, Sooner Esports will be keeping you updated.
