Talk:Texarkana, Texas

message: User: 207.69.139.12 please don't combine the population of both Texarkanas in the Texarkana, Texas articles. IF your want to present a unfied population statistic please do so at Texarkana. -JCarriker 16:53, Oct 6, 2004 (UTC)
I think they should be unified.  I live in Texarkana, Texas and there realy is no clear distinction bettwen the two cities.  People in Texarkana, TX often work in Texarkana, AR and vise versa (I do).  Looking back historicly its hard to say if (for example) Scott Joplin or Ross Pero were natives of that city because there is no distinction.  Indeed natives of the city make no such distinction.

thread_title:  The Town That Dreaded Sundown 

message: * Texarkana is referenced in the song "Cotton Fields" by the American folk and blues musician Lead Belly and later recorded by several notable country rock artists, including The Highwaymen, Buck Owens, The Beach Boys and Creedence Clearwater Revival. Lead Belly (Huddie Ledbetter), was born on a cotton plantation near Linden, Texas, about 40 miles southwest of Texarkana, and later worked on a plantation near De Kalb, Texas, about 35 miles west of Texarkana. 
* In the 1977 film Smokey and the Bandit, Texarkana is the city Bandit and his buddy Snowman must reach to pick up 400 cases of Coors beer and bring back to Atlanta, Georgia in 28 hours.
* "Texarkana" is a 1991 song by R.E.M.. The track appears on the band's seventh studio album, Out of Time.
* In the novel A Canticle for Leibowitz, centuries after a nuclear war that reduces world civilization to a second dark age, Texarkana rises as the capital of a burgeoning empire that expands across the former United States and becomes known as the Atlantic Confederacy.
: , I agree that these mentions are mostly trivial, but they are of interest. I'm placing them on the Talk Page in case elaboration can be found. It may also be possible to insert some of these mentions within the article. Curley Wolf (talk) 02:08, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: In popular culture

message: "A popular story"... can we get a source on that? Texarkana Metropolitan Area seems to have a source that I have not confirmed myself. We could also include the portion about Texarkana being a portmanteau of Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.49.58.254 (talk) 20:16, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
