I must be out of the loop. I have no idea what this "duck thing" is.
Figured some wouldn’t.

If you start looking at a few jeeps you will see plenty that have little ducks lined up across the dashboard.

It’s a Jeep thing (that I neither like or participate in) but folks place little ducks on the hood or door handle of other jeeps, typically they have a little inspirational note attached.
Some folks think it’s cool to completely fill their dash up.

Anyway, most of the jeep owners that actually built up their jeeps for real off road and trail riding don’t particularly care for or participate in the tradition. (Some certainly do).

There are several different stories floating around but this take from Wiki is actually the truth and widely accepted.

Bottom line is, I’m not into it but I’ll let the lil Seahawk duck tag along anytime he wants.


Can’t unsee it, now that you have you will start seeing it everywhere

I see. Bit odd, but ok.

The lil Seahawk guy get a pass?

Does from me.
I wouldn't display it on my dash, personally. Mainly because I don't want to be a ducker lol! It would be with all my other Seahawks stuff inside my home. But again, to each their own.

Could not agree more. First time it happened to me around 2021 I actually caught the person putting a duck on my Jeep. Not knowing what it was I got pissed off because I didnt know his intentions and I had no idea what the hell it was all about. To this day I still hate it.
I'd take one of those but its not going on my Jeep. 👍

My jeep is a decent but mild build on 37s, looks pretty decent.

I can’t leave it parked anywhere in public without getting at least one, I have literally tossed 100s

I had my Jeep for about 15 years and sold it before this weird duck thing hit. Because I didn’t have a Jeep I thought people were just cramming and collecting them on their own. The Jeep wave I get. This duck thing? How’d it even start?
As a side note. I really want one of those LX ducks.
