It may be the off
season for NBA basketball, but that's not stopping some fans from Thundering
Up. And a corn maze
out in Chickasha has a special Thunder twist.
"The Thunder was kind
enough to let us use their logo this year," said farmer, Jerry Reding.

9 flew over the Reding farm Thursday morning and take a look at the
Thunder fun in store for this season's maze. The Thunder logo, a basketball
player and jersey are all mazes in Chickasha.
"My daughter-in-law
she goes ‘Why don't you go for that?'" Reding said. "We were quite excited we
didn't think they would let us use that."

Even Reding gets
lost showing us through the haunted maze which is the big basketball cut out. He
says the biggest challenge to get this maze ready for the season was the
weather.
"That's the
scariest part. We first planted it. We had enough rain. Then it almost burned
up on me. Then we got a four-inch rain in this particular area," he said.
"We do need a rain
really bad, but in the mornings it's really a resilient crop. We call it the
corn maze, but really it's sorghum."
Reding farms is
hoping this year's maze theme is a hit.
"It is for fun,
but it's as much work as any other farming," said Reding.
Reding farms is open for the season on September 28. It will cost
you $10 to $28 depending on how many mazes you want to wind through. They also
have wine tastings on the weekends, a petting zoo every day and a campfire
outside the mazes at night.
