Asheville, NC Muffler Man

Muffler Men, in my books, are one of the coolest and most underrated attractions around. I love them. I think they are stunning.

Check out the map of known muffler men and the history of them at one of my favorite sites: roadsideamerica.com

You don't see many of them these days. In fact, they were really pretty rare to begin with. On our recent trip through North Carolina, we missed an exit near Asheville and found this one a bit by accident.

I took a photo of him up close at night and I saw him again the next day near the road. They really get your attention!
