It ranks right up there with RFC 1149, "A Standard for the Transmission

of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers".  Does anyone know if there are other

gems like these?

Yes.  I personally can recommend the update to RFC 1149, RFC 2549,
although it's not as pathbreaking as the original.

One of my favorite ones is RFC-2324: Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol (HTCPCP/1.0).

I'd guess there are roughly 30 of these.  I'm not sure what the
approval process is.  I suspect it's not very well described by BCP 9.

Since the late 80s, there was one of those for every April 1st. And plus some. Wikipedia has a list:
