• Bend rock takes out 6 cars in one month

    "Bend rock takes out 6 cars in one month. It now has its own Facebook page."

    "A rock that has been troubling some drivers in Bend is becoming something of a new local attraction. It has become so popular, it has amassed its own social media following and merchandise. People have also stopped by to take selfies with it.

    “It’s pretty hilarious that it’s kinda like this rock has brought the community of Bend together,” Bendite Mike Aldridge said.

    The rock sits at the entrance of a plaza at the corner of NE Third Street and Franklin Avenue. It has recently gained a following on social media because of the increase of accidents stranding vehicles high centered. People online have began calling the
    rock “B.O.B.” — apparently for Big Obvious Boulder.

    Someone had some fun and posted a scoreboard next to the rock, with the boulder outscoring cars 6-1."

    Go BOB! Keep up the good work. The fewer dumbasses on the road - even transitorily - the better.

    Theory don't mean squat if it don't work.
