The story I had heard was that Moose Peterson liked to go drinking with his friends and was a real joker. One night his friends decided to play a joke on him and painted his new moose orange. To get back at his friends, he left it that color. After Moose passed away, the business closed and the moose was sold to the new Arrow Head Lodge. This was sometime in the early 1970s.

Lastly, we had a movie made about our town called Wisconsin Death Trip, they showed it on HBO recently, it was about how 100 years ago people died in mysterious ways and how our town and other Wisconsin towns were full of loonies... not that much has changed. [Garrett Gilbertson, 09/20/2000]
