AW Family minus Teen. Rolla, Missouri - A&W Happy Family - Missing Teenager

The Teen Burger figure is missing. The family is now standing on a smaller truck, too. I don't know if there wasn't room for him or if the family moved to smaller digs when he left. [Ken Roggenkamp, 11/16/2009]

Rolla, Missouri - A&W Happy Family

The Happy Family was made for A&W Root Beer by Steve Dashew's company, International Fiberglass. This is the entire family! All four members, still holding their namesake burgers. They are simply sitting on the top of a truck trailer along Route 66, rather faded, but otherwise seem in good shape. The truck is in front of a metal building that claims to be a grocery store, and a trailer park (which is for sale) that advertises that it has a grumpy owner. [Priscilla Bledsaw, 08/30/2006]

Burger Family conscripted by Discount Food. Rolla, Missouri - Burger Family

"Burger Family" at Discount Foods, Rolla, MO (on north access road to I-44 at mile marker 190, 2-3 miles east of Rolla). The store wasn't open when I was there and I couldn't find a listing in the phone book. [David Carlson, 07/04/2004]

[RA: The Burger Family is more menacing when they're viewed from below, ready to drop molten cheese burgers and icy root beers on attackers.]
