University Of Okoboji

The University of Okoboji is an American fictitious university in the state of Iowa, supposedly established in 1878. "Okoboji" refers to several lakes and the town in the Iowa Great Lakes region which are popular recreational destinations. The University was invented by The Three Sons in the early seventies – they printed T-shirts with an "official" school seal and distributed other merchandise. Nowadays Okoboji is associated with several annual fund-raising and charitable events, including bike rides, a marathon, and a winter games competition. A local radio station, KUOO, has joined in the joke and refers to itself as the "campus radio".
