This rubber duck museum in a U.S. border town has lost business. Now it's moving to B.C.

“culturally significant’ rubber ducks”

-
significant to whom?.....I can only imagine the type of people that would patronize such a place.

Having owned a Jeep Wrangler for the past 6 years I can assure you, if I never see another rubber duck again in my lifetime it’ll be too soon.

Culturally significant Rubber Ducks.
You mean like Donald, Daisy, Daffy, Disco?
Oh, Floater Ducks!
That’s got to be a Museum for the Birds!
One guess on their Ring Tone for the company phone.

Those types of people have moved having a Jeep into the Subaru category.

Been there. Check it out on the map. Cheaper to just give the place to Canada. Border guards are not cheap.

Maybe adjust the border so Point Roberts is in Canada and we swap it for a couple of the smaller San Juan Islands.

It’s a way for one Jeeper to tell another one “nice Jeep”....but it’s now out of hand.

I’ve seen Jeeps with 30, 40 or more on the dashboard......kinda dumb IMO.

When I get one I just throw it in the center console.

I only have one on my dash and that’s only because of my wife......and it’s a Trump duck.👇

But sales plummeted when political tensions ramped up last year after the election of U.S. President Donald Trump, along with his rumblings of annexing Canada as the “51st state.”


They invest in a rubber duck museum and when it fails, they blame Trump.

King David (George in Veggietales) shouldn't have gone after someone else's ducky.
