Odessa = Jack Rabbit's Palace?

Stumbled across this tidbit on Wiki - thought it was interesting:
"Jack Rabbit as symbol
The jack rabbit has become the symbol of Odessa. Beginning in 1932, Odessa held a rodeo for roping rabbits. In one competition, cowgirl Grace Hendricks roped a rabbit from horseback in five seconds and beat her male competitors. The unusual rodeo ended in 1977 because of objections from the Humane Society. Many businesses and residences about Odessa display models of rabbits.
Any connection there - or is my mind just still mush from part 18?
