White Deer is a small town in the Texas Panhandle. With a population of 1,000 and diminishing, it is your average white trash town with absolutely no racial diversity. The High
School is the only interesting thing in town, as you’ll notice that students tend to gather at the
football stadium,” the drag”, even on the weekends. There are a couple pregnancies a year, the occasional students smoking K2 in the auditorium, and if you’re lucky, you’ll even get to watch a
pig get slaughtered in
ag class. White Deer may have the biggest rumor mill of all small Panhandle towns, as many residents discover most information about themselves from gossip. This is especially true for former White Deer graduates who were able to move away. They tend to be the
target of the most rumors, both from teachers and students.
Sam: “Oh hey, wanna go to the White Deer drag tonight and talk shit on Brittany?”
Jess: “Oh totally. The English
teacher told me about all her bad grades, pregnancy scare, and coked out
parents. I can’t wait to tell everyone.”
