When was the last time you played a game of “Would You Rather,” Fort Worth? In case you’ve never played, here’s a quick rundown:

Step 1 — A question is posed that pitches two options. Example: “Would you rather live in Fort Worth or any other city in the world?”

Step 2 — You decide what you’d rather do. No surprise here, we’re saying The 817.

Now that you’re a “Would You Rather” expert, let’s tap into our inner middle schoolers and play this nostalgic game, featuring some of Cowtown’s most iconic landmarks, qualities + foods.

Question one

Would you rather spend two hours playing tourist in your own city with Mayor Mattie Parker OR spend a day with the Fort Worth Herd asking the drovers anything you want to know?

  • 9-5 with Mattie would be ideal, but two hours will do.
  • Cattle drive, here I come.

Question two

Would you rather take in skyline views at Rooftop Cinema on a Friday night OR catch a live performance at Stage West Theater?

  • Let’s make some movie magic.
  • Live theater is my love language.

Question three

Would you rather have unlimited pickle chips from Best Maid OR corny dogs from Fletchers?

  • My money is on Best Maid.
  • Corny dogs daily, please.

Question four

Would you rather live in a West Seventh loft OR a restored home in Fairmount?

  • West Seventh loft — I live for the hustle + bustle.
  • Fairmount house — I’m not afraid of a little DIY.

Question five

Would you rather experience Fort Worth 100 years ago OR 100 years in the future?

  • Take me back.
  • Show me the future.

Record your answers here. Thanks for playing, Panther City.
