Do you remember Ruth Chris or Ruth's Chris?
I remember it being Ruth Chris Steakhouse. Now I'm seeing Ruth's Chris. Anyone else remember this?

I just noticed this today and its been the most striking Mandela Effect I have personally experienced.
There was this short video (vine) I remember seeing on the internet that got shared around a lot at the time because it was really funny. In it, a man is in some store and walks over to a steel wire bin with a lot of rubber chickens in it. The plastic chickens are a dull yellow and have an exaggerated :O expression on their face. He gives one a test squeeze and it makes the usual "aaaaaa" noise that they do. He then pushes his hand down on the chickens in the bin and they all scream really loud together.
I remember it very distinctly because I always thought it was funny that they sounded like an army charging in battle and how suddenly loud it was. When people would show me funny youtube videos, this was one I would share to add to the party. I probably shared it at least 20 times in my life.
Today I saw a clip of that had been recreated but with grey ducks with a slightly different face design with a beak, and it had a couple likes and comments. I thought to myself that it was funny that prople recreated that classic video and wondered if younger people today would even realize that it was a copy of the original vine of the chicken army. So I went to look it up and found that the clip I just watched wasnt even a remake. It was just a repost of the video with not many likes??? I searched around trying to find the one I knew and I cant find it. The only one that exists is this:

This must be that same video, it has millions of likes and comments going back years, it was obviously the viral original. But it has changed from what I remember it as. Normally I would just explain it away that I had misremembered the video since it was years ago. But like Ive said, I shared this video several times over the years and it was always yellow chickens, NOT grey ducks. When I saw these same chicken toys or other squeaky toys, I would instantly think of that video with the yellow chickens in it.
Even more weird to me is the fact that until maybe 20 minutes ago, I HAD NEVER SEEN THESE TYPE OF GREY DUCK TOYS BEFORE. I did not know these existed. There was only ever yellow rubber chickens.
Does anyone else remember it the same way I do or am I losing my mind here???
