== Fun facts ==
* Tom Green County has a long, narrow strip of land extending to the west. This unusual feature is because Reagan County to the west used to be part of Tom Green County, and the state of Texas required that all counties have a contiguous land route to their county seat. Therefore, the small strip of land served to connect the two main regions. In 1903, the residents of the western section voted to form their own county (Reagan County), while in the same vote it was decided that the connecting strip would remain as part of Tom Green County.
* Christoval is the hometown of Jack Pardee, a former American football linebacker and the only head coach to lead teams in college football, the NFL, the United States Football League, and the Canadian Football League. Mr. Pardee was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as a player in 1986. He was an All-American linebacker at Texas A&M University and a two-time All-Pro with the Los Angeles Rams (1963) and the Washington Redskins (1971).
* Politically, Tom Green is strongly Republican and has been since the 1970s.
* The name "Veribest" was chosen by a young woman named Sue Rister, who was asked by the mayor, in a grocery store, to choose the town's new name. She saw a jar of Veribest mayonnaise and thought it would be a good name for a town. Veribest was a brand name used by Armour & Company for canned meats and preserves.
* In 2003, a FedEx Cessna Caravan crashed on a plot of land belonging to the West Texas Boys Ranch at Tankersley.
