    Good list. One minor thing: South Coffeyville (a "suburb" of Coffeyville, Kansas) is misspelled. Unfortunately, it is not spelled like the drink.

  17. I live 20 miles from Hooker and their main mascot is the Bulldogs. Their summer baseball program is the horny toads, but other wise its the Bulldogs. Also, Sunray is in Texas, not Oklahoma. I live about 60 miles away from it.
