Some time back, I ran across the intersection of Moose and Squirrel. I even started a thread on it:

And those two do [intersect](https://www.google.com/maps/@51.1818389,-115.5712879,3a,75y,18.39h,94.81t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sVfPHbu96JP0mtljnnmPlxA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656). It’s just an ordinary residential intersection, no special indication of Rocky&Bullwinkleness, alas. And streetview didn’t have a good image of both street signs together. You can see one of them above the stop sign and if you maneuver around you can see the other.
