Casper, Wyoming: Every Roadside Gimmick: Sanford's Grub and Pub

The food is secondary at this roadside restaurant, which goes overboard with goofy outdoor statues, crazy cars, etc. to attract customers.

Every Roadside Gimmick - Sanford's Grub & Pub

I didn't go in but there's a lot of cool stuff outside. Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck are about 30 feet tall. There's a shark hanging from a hoist, alligators in a truck. The landscaping has a lot of old cars with plants growing out of the engine compartments. Plus much more. Well worth a stop if you're in the area.

[Joe Boulter, 09/11/2013]

We appreciate the convergence of big statues, retro architecture, petroliana, and sharks, although there's a distinct marketing research vibe to it all. Licensed cartoon characters, just-so vintage cars, almost-movie/diner marquee. Wonder if others in the chain are similar? Still, worth a stop.
