[Michelle, 06/19/2010] - Flagstaff, Arizona - Lumberjack Muffler Man
The Lumberjack outside of the Walkup Skydome in Flagstaff, Arizona was the victim of beer-soaked pranksters in February, 2004. I guess they cut him down by his ankles and beheaded him.
[Juti, 08/20/2004] - Flagstaff, Arizona - Two Lumberjacks
There are two lumberjack muffler men -- one inside and one outside the Walkup Skydome stadium at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff. (NAU's sports teams are nicknamed, curiously enough, the Lumberjacks). I have heard that both lumberjacks previously stood in front of The Lumberjack Cafe, which is now Granny's Closet, on Route 66 in Flagstaff.
[Martin Ince, 10/13/1997] - Flagstaff, Arizona - Sacred White Buffalo Ranch
These are one the most sacred buffalo of the Native American, with a story to match. If going to the Grand Canyon, this is on the way. The buffalo are the first and only DNA-proven white buffalo. I love these buffalo so much I returned for the second time, and I'll return whenever I'm in the area.

Tipster Norm Richie comments: "We never called it a Muffler Man, but the one pictured for Tucson is a dead ringer for the one that sat in front of the Lumberjack Cafe in Flagstaff, AZ for years in the '60s." And "Crissy" writes: "My friends in Flagstaff explained to me that the college kids steal the axe from one of the muffler men every year as a prank of some sort."
