Muffler Man

There is a Muffler Man stationed on Hwy. 65, 30-45 minutes north of Minneapolis. His skin tone is unnaturally pale. Is this due to weathering or do all MMs look like this? I should add that the Isanti Muffler Man is neither a Cowboy nor Indian nor Alfred E. Neuman. He is actually hefting a muffler outside a muffler shop.
