Before they built I-75, US highway 41 was the main road between Atlanta
and Florida.  41 comes though my hometown.  I had an uncle that made a
small fortune by selling $1 tickets to the tourist wanting to see a real
live "jack-a-lope" in his store, rest-stop.  It was his cat with plastic
antlers on his head.  The cat was unusually good natured about it and
enjoyed the attention.  One week, he made $500 on "boots" alone!
