Impalas aren't what you'd call very common even in the US. It's sort of a sub-brand of Chevy that is only one model car.   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Impala

And it's pronounced differently (im-PAW-la vs im-PALE-r) but since the joke is in text instead of spoken it works IMO.

Regardless, "impale" wasn't in my vocabulary, so I didn't know what to think of the image in question.

Not only that, but I doubt that anyone would make the connection who didn't also know about the historical/legendary title referred to.

I know the history (after all, it was his nickname for what he did) and the fact that in spanish "impaler" is "empalador", quite similar, made is easier to understand.

@Rol_ Just for curiosity, how is "impaler" in german? Is it that different that you didn't recognize or guess the word?
