== Fun facts ==
* Tom Blasingame, the oldest cowboy in the history of the American West, lived in Armstrong County and worked for 73 years in ranching, mostly on the JA Ranch. Ranch historian Laura Vernon Hamner interviewed many "old-timers" in Armstrong County during the last decade of the 19th century and the first decade of the 20th century in preparation for her later writings on the Texas Panhandle.
* Goodnight was named for pioneer rancher Charles Goodnight.
* Claude was originally named Armstrong City after several area ranches named Armstrong, however, the name was changed in 1887.
* The Armstrong County Museum has local and western-themed exhibits.
* During the 1930s, Claude had the only official-sized gymnasium in the area. The West Texas State College (now West Texas A&M University) basketball team used it on numerous occasions.
* Claude has very little to offer. It has a landing strip, a few gas stations, a few local restaurants and businesses, an RV park, a sports complex, a few public battle fields, Dollar General, and that's about it.
