Tulia in The House of Daniel
Despite having a population of only a thousand people or so, Tulia had its own semi-pro baseball team, the Ravens. In May, 1934, the Ravens beat the barnstorm House of Daniel, thanks to their talented pitcher, Sidd.

More mundanely, Tulia had an annual celebration called "Old Settlers' Day" in July. Part of the celebration included men growing out their whiskers for a prize.
