Anadarko, OK

A couple of years ago I had NADARKO for my car tag in proud honor of my hometown.

It has been my understanding that the town was to be called "Nadarko" but that a railroad station master put an "A" in front of the name in order to get a better "listing" in the town names in early day Oklahoma. An "A" at the beginning of the name would place the town's name at or near the first names listed on the map when listed alphabetically.
