    What about Panther Edition? Fort Worth is known as Panther City and gingerly adopted the name after a write up from a Dallas (shutter) reported said "Fort Worth was so dead, I saw a panther sleeping on Main Street". Fort Worthians happily made the name stick and are proud of their laid back, easy going nature. There's Panther Island, Panther Pavilion, etc. and a statute of a sleeping Panther outside of the admin building across from the courthouse.

    Here's a link to the history. Although this comes from a blog it's a well known story. https://panthercityblawg.wordpress.com/the-legend-of-panther-city/

    The story I always grew up hearing about the meaning behind panther city was a black panther on the loose in the late 1800's. Im gonna try to find a link and put it up, Ive never heard of the reporter story.
