Since Round Rock is the least known, perhaps you could add that it's home to Dell Inc. Not sure if that would help or not, but at least it would add some significance.

Spent a good 2 minutes typing in Canyon and wondering why it wasn't accepted. I swear it was West Texas A&M the first time I read it.

Because everyone knows that West Texas A&M is in Canyon, duh... No spending 43 of my 47 years in Texas helps.. As does being nerd about what cities are home to universities. So I know all about towns like Boone, Normal, Moscow etc.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say getting rid of everything before "in Texas helps.." is why you know it, not bc "everyone knows West Texas A&M is there"

Grew up my whole life here and no one I've met would've heard of it, and my town is super academically driven!

Don't mess with Texas. But remember the Alamo. Which is when someone messed with Texas.

That didn't turn out too well for the Texans, although it is special to me. While attending a friend's wedding in San Antonio in 1974, my future husband and I got engaged. I'll always remember the Alamo. :)
