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:

… and one in New Mexico

… and the one in Flagstaff – no picture yet.

Of course they’re hokey. They’re on Route 66, aren’t they?
