So, there’s this video making the rounds on the internets that features a guy narrating while filming a rainbow. The video itself is pretty boring; it’s the guys narration that has made the video famous.
The video has made the CollegeHumor.com list of Top 10 Viral Videos of 2010 So Far and inspired tons of parodies and songs.
I was only barely aware of the meme when I took a trip to Teton Valley with some friends. While we were there, we went to go see a house that my friend Carl built and later sold. The house is on Rainbow Loop in Driggs, Id just off of Rainbow Drive.
As we were leaving the neighborhood, I noticed the street sign for Rainbow Drive where it meets the main highway and the sign read “Double Rainbow Dr”.
Now I’m wondering if this is some kind of joke or if the name of the street has actually been changed to “Double Rainbow”. Also, if the street name has been changed, was it changed in response to the video or is this just a coincidence?
Both Google Maps and Bing Maps still show the street as Rainbow drive, but I know that both take a while to reflect changes and additions. I can’t imagine somebody taking the time and effort to make such a regular looking sign just as a joke only to put it in one of the remotest places in the country. On the other hand, why would they change the name of the street? It’s not like they’re running out of street names out there. I suppose that I can keep checking the maps to see if they ever get the change.
In any case, it would be great if somebody could get a video of a double rainbow in Teton Valley right on Double Rainbow Dr.
