What will college students do for Lollapalooza tickets? About 4.2 miles of humiliation! At Saturday’s Red Bull Land Rush along the Oklahoma River, participating teams will wear bonnets made of the state veggie, try their hands at lassoing, do the Harlem Shake, don 1800s-inspired mustaches and more, from noon to 4 p.m. Visit redbulllandrush.com.
