This Bull statue in San Jose had been at the Sherwood Inn since at least the 1970s. The second photo is from 2014. Around 2014, the Bull had been given a bright green paint job. In 2020, the Bull was removed. [first photo thanks Mark Comstock]

Hobe Meats was established in 1962. This pair of bull statues was installed around 2016. This photo is from 2018. By 2023, the bulls had been painted black and white. The neon sign shown in the second row above is located inside the store. [map]

Sebring, FL

Montgomery, AL
The bull at the Watering Hole Lounge was installed around 2015. It was gone by 2023.

The bull on the left at the Beef Wagon has been located in the parking lot of the Alabama Cattlemen's Association since at least 2009. The van with the statue has been traveling around Alabama since 1965. Around 2019, the statue was repainted. It was previously painted with a diagram with cuts of beef. These photos are from 2020 and 2021. Since at least 2013, there is also another bull statue on a trailer in the parking lot, still painted with the cuts of beef. For more, see this website. [map]

Houston, TX
The bull at the AA Western Store has been on the roof since at least 2008. [map]
