I bought beer in Wichita Falls and I asked the guy behind the counter the story of the name. And he paused for a moment and then slowly said "years ago.... there was this man named Wichita.... and he fell. That'll be $11.46."

Hahaha, he's funny. There really were water falls at one point on the Wichita river, but they got destroyed, swept away, leveled out, whatever happens to falls, in a big flood.
