Muffler Man in Classroom

The Muffler Man torso/head formerly at Pinehurst Elementary School has moved. The teacher who had him at Pinehurst switched schools, and is now at Canyon Elementary in Cataldo. The Bunyan now resides in a 2nd grade classroom.

Muffler Man inside a School

There is a half-Muffler-Man in a classroom at an elementary school in Pinehurst. I was walking across their playground at night and saw his head through a window. Upon inquiring, I found out that the teacher in the the 4th grade classroom is a Muffler Man fan who put the head and torso in his class! I was able to get a picture inside the next day.
