Have you ever had that feeling of being stuck between a rock and a hard place? Chances are that you didnโt mean it literally. Well, unfortunately for dozens of people in Omaha โ they actually know the literal meaning of that well-known phrase!
Someone placed a rock on a median in a parking lot to prevent people from cutting the corner by jumping the curb, apparently a common occurrence โ until now. Whatโs even crazier? This rock has itโs own Facebook page because of its reputation.
Sadly, for these 30 people, they didnโt notice the giant rock and they became very, very stuck.
