Kek, no it's not but it is funny as hell. If you ever go to the high desert in southern California you might just hear of the mighty Jackalope, a vicious varmint that terrorizes local desert communities. These rascals are larger than a regular Jackrabbit but they also have the horns of an antelope! The horror!

Be me.

Sitting in the Summit Inn on Route 66 in the Cajon Pass with my Yugo lady (her first trip to Cali) when she looks up on the wall and saw picrel (they were all over the place). Obviously curious what the hell that monstrosity was I said that it was a Jackalope. Surprisingly, she didn't believe me but when I called the matronly waitress over and asked her what the mounted trophy on the wall was she instantly and casually replied that it was a Jackalope.

The IRL shitposting was so ingrained in the desert community that it took me at least 5 minutes to convince my Yugo girl that we were pulling her leg.

Ever see the old color post cards of the giant trout being pulled onto boat trailers with winches? Legend!

Lol, yes I have. Still, the high desert has adopted as it's own the Jackalope and you will find references all over the place to it. I used to spend days and days riding through the desert to lost towns along highway 66 and if you asked ANY of the locals about it the answer was serious and without hesitation. It was glorious IRL shitposting at it's finest.

picrel is the Summit Inn that I mentioned https://pic8.co/sh/Xtb9Cj.jpg

Excellent Salisbury steaks btw. https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/summit-inn-restaurant

edit: fug. Update: The Summit Inn was destroyed by the Blue Cut Fire on August 16, 2016. As of May 2017, all that remains is the restaurant’s original signage.

Update: The sign has been removed.
