Ex-model Nicole (Nikki) Summer Hanson (born Dufresne), wife of musician Isaac Hanson of pop/rock band Hanson, was a resident of Panama City.
She was not a model of significance and is only notable based on the fact that she is married to the hanson.  It is not a cultural reference. Cheesecake42 (talk) 18:04, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

I think it words it a little better. Cheesecake42 (talk) 17:45, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, no. If Joe Francis brought suit and proved in a court of law that he was mistreated, that is one matter. All prisoners claim to be wrongfully imprisoned and treated improperly. That is a fact of life there and prison culture. Some of it is most likely true, but most "abuse" occurs at the hands of other prisoners, usually. An single comment by a single person? There'd be thousands of little accusations throughout the article. Mere WP:SOAPBOX by Joe Francis. Student7 (talk) 18:22, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

message: Hi! Is there nothing to be said about this city's history? I came here to find out why it was called Panama city (which is strange isn't it? there must be a link with the "real" Panama..) and... well I hope someone finds the explanation some time and shares it here with us...   94.226.81.49 (talk) 10:02, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The "best" answer I found is that it was "halfway betweenChicago and the real Panama and it wished to capitalize on that (but failed to catch on)." This sounded pretty lame, but it was the "best" of a non-existent lot. why the mystery I wonder? Going to need a real credible WP:RELY source for this when found. If found.

replies: text: According to KGB, "Panama City was an attempt to lure the huge United Fruit Company as a new headquarter city."  This, of course, doesn't answer the question. Hometown.com states, "It is a cross between a latitudinal line east from Panama City, Panama and a city on the longitudical line due north of Panama City, FL."  So, who knows. --It's me...Sallicio!\color{Red} \oplus 05:57, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

message: I'm surprised no one mentions this languid and sultry 1993 coming of age 'character study' with Ashley Judd, where the character being studied is as much the town of Panama City, Florida and the local economies thereof, as it is the hapless young Ruby.

I am from Panama City and my grandfather, Teddy Faoutas, used to have a small restaurant on Harrison Ave. The name is also corroborated by the current Google maps of Panama City. --Randy Yates  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yates (talk • contribs) 15:03, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

message: I see someone took the paper mill out of the major employers section. But L-3 (gone or absorbed into SAIC) and ARINC (now Booz Allen Hamilton) are still listed.  Does anyone know where an updated list is available? Jobeibi (talk) 15:37, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
