The Internet seems torn between nicknames for San Antonio. Is 'San Antone' an acceptable nickname for the city? Here's what Redditors have to say.
San Antonio is a city that goes by many names, from “ Countdown City ” to “ Military City ” and everything in between. However, the acceptability of one nickname in particular is up for debate on Reddit — “ San Antone .” So, is George Strait ’s famous “up from San Antone ” line in “ Amarillo by Morning” a flop? Is Johnny Cash ’s “but that train keeps a-rollin', on down to San Antone ” line in “ Folsom Prison Blues ” a fumble? Here’s what one very small corner of the Internet has to say.
” However, other users suggested a few unique nicknames, like “Deuce Dime,” in reference to the 210 area code, and others offered sobriquets based on San Antonio’s Tex-Mex culture, like “Puroville.” Despite the discourse, it seems like there’s actually no “correct” answer, just personal preferences. San Antonio has a rich history that dates back to 1718, when its first mission was founded in San Pedro Springs — and with that history comes many nicknames.
