Harry Turtledove apparently doesn’t like Lubbock either. Much of the action in his Great War series (set in a world where the Confederacy won the Civil War) actually takes place in Lubbock.

*SPOILERS*

In the 1930s, Lubbock is the capital of the new state of Houston, formed out of west Texas land taken by the United States after the Confederacy was defeated in the Great War (World War I in the real universe).
The city is infested with Confederate sympathizers and terrorists, however, and this leads to an uprising instigated by a Hitler style maniac who has siezed power in the defeated Confederacy.
Turtledove obviously did his homework on Lubbock in the 30s and was apparently here in person at some point. Somebody must have really annoyed him him, because he includes such charming details as General McArthur rolling tanks down Broadway and using cannister shot and machine guns to disperse rioting mobs of pro-Confederate Lubbockites. Before it is over, the Army Air Corps firebombs the downtown area.
