Found the flip-flops but not the crossed shovel and pick, nor the T-Rex skull. Perhaps I should go back to the dealer and demand new floor mats ... :)
If you are unable to find either "Easter Egg" then you either received the wrong floor mats or you need glasses.

Well, I do wear glasses, so there is that.

Apparently the driver's floor mat design is different from the passenger's floor mat design. There is no axe and shovel or T-Rex on the driver's floor mat, but there is a T-Rex on the passenger's floor mat. No axe and shovel, but there is a T-Rex.

I had assumed they would be the same, so I only looked at the driver's side, and no T-Rex and no axe and shovel.

First attachment is driver's side floor mat. Second is passenger's side floor mat.

Mmmmmmmm..........I wonder if Jeep was worried the driver would spend so much time staring at the cool designs on the floor mat by their feet that they would become too distracted to drive? :involve:

The Jeep Silhouette on the rear mat is pretty cool too.

If I remember the story correctly it was to honor someone at Jeep that wore flip flops all the time.
The Thongs/Flip Flops (soda/pop/coke?) are for Rick Pewe, who is always in flip flops. He was editor of JP magazine and very active in the Jeep community.

Pop is what you get in the mouth for referring to all sodas as coke!?

They're not called thongs or flip flops... they're called PEDS

Now here's a line and picture that bears the need for further scrutiny. What exactly do you mean when you say they are your specialty? Hobby or profession? And wow that is a lot of black light florescent swim wear.

On the left is Rick Pewe, and on the right is David Freiburger. Both were editors who worked on some of the great off-road magazines at the turn of the century when they were read by countless Jeepers. Petersen's 4-wheel and Off-road, JP magazine, and Fourwheeler. David is recognized now for his part in the success of the Motor Trend channels Roadkill show. Rick and David both have an aversion to wearing "normal" socks and shoes. With them even welding in sandals on occasion. Rick was even highly influential in getting the Rubicon trim to come to fruition from some of the rumors that I've heard.
