Even Oscar Weber Bilby has a claim to the invention of the hamburger. His family claims that on July 4th, 1891 Oscar put the first-known hamburger together on a bun and served it at his farm.

The "On A Bun" Loophole
In its current iteration, the definition of a hamburger involves a bun. Other claims to hamburger fame have been sandwiches and whatnot.

In 1995, Oklahoma Governor Frank Keating proclaimed therefor that the first REAL hamburger on a bun was created and consumed in Tulsa.

What do YOU think? By definition, is it safe to call Tulsa "The Real Birthplace of the Hamburger?" That would make Oscar Weber Bilby the creator of the hamburger.
