Glenn Stone - Muffler Man
I am a recent convert, and during the holidays, my seven year old son James and I went to view our local muffler man, about 15 miles distant from our home. he was holding a candy cane instead of the reported double-bladed ax.
His eyes need painting. In the car on the way to see him we had been talking about zombies, and it was hard to NOT see this guy had been turned into one. His hat needs painting too. It's a very faded yellow. Otherwise his colors are good. a repair to the base, in his right foot.
He has no personality at all. But he is well cared for.
[Maura McMillan, 02/04/2001]He is indeed a famous person around town, usually accidentally discovered by the uninitiated as they drive by him on their way to somewhere else...incidentally, around Christmas time, his handlers equip him with a candy cane. Rumor has it that it is a common hazing trick to have new police officers report to Glenn and Stone to handle reports of a "huge man with an axe." Rock on, big man.
[The Richman, 09/06/1998]This fine fellow stands across the street from a Circle K on the corner of Stone and Glenn. He is disguised as a Bunyan, and is restrained by a tiny chain-link fence around his ankles. From Interstate 10, take the exits that lead you to Speedway orBroadway. They are the largest streets nearby in the whole commerical/industrial area. Video grab.
