      Arts and culture


      Since 1987, the Two-Toed Tom Festival has been held annually in the town. The theme of the festival is in remembrance of an infamous, 18-foot alligator from the early 1900s that was known to kill farmers' livestock (such as cattle) as well as humans. People would know it was that specific alligator because of his distinctive footprints, being it only had two toes on one of its legs due to a steel animal trap that failed to capture it. This is how he got the name "Two-Toed Tom". Up until the 1970s, people claimed to see Tom or his unique footprints in and around the town and Holmes County.
