Pink Elephant. DeForest, Wisconsin - Pink Elephant with Glasses

I saw the Pink Elephant, but instead of shades, he had glasses without the lenses. It was right next to the Citgo station. He was awesome!

I bought key chain for $1.99 and a magnet for $1.19! [Karen F, 08/23/2008]

Pink elephant with glasses. DeForest, Wisconsin - Pink Elephant

He is still there. We stumbled upon him on Memorial Day Weekend. Unfortunately it is in need of a good paint job. The gas station attendant didn't seem to care about it at all, and seemed rather annoyed by people's interest. [Merlin, 06/15/2008]

Bride, groom, pink elephant. DeForest, Wisconsin - Pink Elephant

I am glad to see others in as much love with this elephant as I am. I grew up in Dane county but traveled north at least once a month my entire life. Seeing the elephant meant an exciting weekend ahead, or that we were almost home. When I got married this summer, we had our reception at the new hotel right by the elephant, and I knew we had to stop for pictures. I don't know if anyone else has done it, but this is our favorite picture from the wedding. [Jodie Lasco, 11/03/2007]

Pink elephant. DeForest, Wisconsin - Pink Elephant - Befouled!

The Pink Elephant is still there. Shamefully, there is much graffiti on the Elephant now, on its glasses, on it's backside...drawings of things that may not be the best for kids to see and lots of foul language written on it. There were still a lot of people there to take pics with it. It's visible off the roadway. [Lynn Van Hoose, 06/01/2007]

DeForest, Wisconsin - Pink Elephant With Glasses

The pink elephant is still standing. The gas station where the elephant is located sells Pink Elephant hats, t-shirts, stickers, key chains and magnets. While you're there you might as well as kill two birds with one stone. If you make a right out of the parking lot of the Pink Elephant and drive about a quarter of a mile, you'll see the other DeForest attraction...Sissy the Cow. She's on your right kiddie corner to a Culver's Restaurant. [Chris Donnells, 08/12/2006]
