Phony high school one only four football
games last year, but there may have been
a good reason, a key injury
to a statue of a jack rabbit.
The Jack Rabbit is the school's mascot
and a prominent symbol of downtown Forni.
This is what the rabbit is supposed to
look like, but it doesn't take a closer
examination to say something is missing.
The rabbit right here, the bunny
has been vandalized on previous occasions
with nothing to match this.
The deed was done sometime last fall
during football season.
And for any coach, Dwane Richter's
believes he knows who did it, but he
can't prove it.
Now, I called the guy they say was
responsible for it.
I got his number, his name, and I called
him and just asked, you know,
if he did, in fact, take it off and if he
did, did he have it?
I wasn't planning on pressing charges
distributer back, so I put it back.
But of course, he flatly denied it all
before any Lions Club is making plans
to have the ear replaced.
And that's good news for some of the old
timers around town.
Yeah, I mean, everybody here,
his opinion is not shared by everyone.
I think jackrabbits certainly
not so loud. And jackrabbits have
big ears, even if one is missing.
