The back is the prank because it has the Caltech Logo, two palm trees and the following \"...because not everyone can go to Caltech.
The Caltech students famously (or infamously) flew 3,000 miles to MIT to pull off one of the greatest stunts in collegiate history (it even has its own Wikipedia page).
