Symbolism[]
The blue stripe represents the space age to come (as foreseen in 1968). The white stripe depicts the Trinity River channel, and the green stripe symbolizes the green of the prairie. The longhorn head suggests one of the city’s nicknames, “Cowtown”, recalling Fort Worth’s early years, after railroads arrived, as a major center for the shipment of cattle.[1]

The flag scored 4.24 / 67th out of 150 on the 2004 NAVA City Flag Survey, tied between Charlotte and Trenton.
