These two pages that Mabel flashes on the screen for an instant talk about the The Aztecs.
The text on the pages say:
"The Aztecs had many ritual and ceremonies that have gone unpracticed for hundreds of
years. Most impressive among them was the act of "Quzetoheetl", the ritual of forming
a circle around a wolf of wild dog and chanting sacred words which gave the dog the ability
to speak english and play basketball. (Or "ollamalitzi".) Once the Aztecs used this
rituals on a very special dog. The special dog befriended a lonely boy who was the water
boy for his local high school ollamalitzi team. After the dog ran onto the court and
became a fan favorite, the mean former owner kidnapped the dog. Luckily the lonely boy
steals him back just in time to make it to the big tournament, where it is declared that
"there's nothing in the rulebook that says a dog can't play ollamalitzi." The dog scored
an amazing last second point to win the game! Everyone rejoiced! Then the ritual of "Xolitzeunzli"
was performed to allow the dog to have puppies, save Christmas, and become Santa's most special
reindeer."
These pages seem more designed to be a joke, where the legends of the Aztecs are wrapped
up in some of the basic plot points from the Air Bud film franchises. But that said, a
talking dog isn't outside the possibility for a show like Gravity Falls. Especially
when we've seen one dog - a golden retriever, much like Air Bud - prominently shown over
and over. Of course I'm talking about Pacifica Northwest's dog!
What secrets does this dog hold, and does Pacifica know anything about it? Leave your
theories and suggestions in the comments below!
