About Fort Worth elsewhere

"The most western portion of the DFW Metroplex and historical part of the Chisolm trail, Fort Worth is known by diverse names such as Cowtown and Panther City...when the town was considered a sleepy cowtown between cattle drives, legend has it a panther was seen sleeping in the road in the middle of town."

"Fort Worth was born to the military in 1841 and raised as a cattle-drive cowtown."
.nationalgeographic.com

"Known as "Cowtown" for its roots as a cattle drive terminus, Fort Worth bills itself as "Where the West begins" and still celebrates its colorful Western and Southern heritage."
en.wikipedia.org

"Sometimes referred to as Cowtown, it is by far closer to its cowboy roots than neighboring."
wikitravel.org

"Fort Worth, sneered at as "Cowtown" by its neighbors, lives in the shadow of its wild history as a rip-roaring cowboy town, a place of gunfights and cattle drives -- even though its cultural establishment is superior to Dallas's and it has seen a downtown rebirth in recent years."
fodors.com

"The funds raised will be for 3 scholarships for the youth learning to perform the "Old Western" music which the Cowtown Opry preserves by giving concerts each Sun. 2 p.m. in front of the Exchange Bldg, Historic Stockyards."

Six Flags Over Texas is by the the coolest Six Flags I've ever been to. It is totally worth fighting traffic in the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex. This theme park is home to the largest wooden coaster (the Texas Giant) as well as a whole slue of rides that get the adrenalin pumping. I suggest riding the Titan, the Batman ride, and definitely ride the Mr. Freeze Ride. You go from 0-70 in 3 seconds all the while twisting and turning--eventually going completely vertical-- all to just do it all over again backwards. The entire ride might be 45 seconds, but it's totally worth it!
