Do we talk about random KS small towns and why they are unique/weird here or does that need its own thread? I think it needs its own imo.

Example - Cawker City with the twine thing.

Don't know if they still have it or not, but Dighton used to host a massive dunk ball tournament at their high school. I was on 9 foot rims and you had to be 6'2" or under to play. People would come from all over the plains to play in that thing. It was physical a.f. Anyway, that tournament was incred, Dighton, obviously, isn't.

Holton?

This is the correct answer. Just google Jacob Ewing and read about how a lot of people around town reacted

Is Chetopa a real town? I see it exists on a map but is it really there? Has anyone actually been there?
