Muffler Men on America’s Main Street
I saw my first Muffler Man in Flagstaff, AZ but didn’t realize what it was. He was standing in front of Granny’s back in 2006, dressed as a lumberjack. I thought, “What IS that?”. It seemed kind of hokey.
As time went on, I came to learn that the Muffler Men have a unique bond with The Mother Road, Route 66.
There are at least 3 Muffler Men in Illinois:
Please Mr Spaceman – Look and See
HotDog! There’s a Muffler Man in Atlanta, ILL
Harley Muffler Man on Route 66 in Illinois
… and one in New Mexico
The Muffler Man In Gallup, NM Packs Heat!
… and the one in Flagstaff – no picture yet.
Of course they’re hokey. They’re on Route 66, aren’t they?
