King Kong sighting

There are someĀ genius marketing skills in play here. I just hope the giant inflatable gorilla dancing on the roof isn’t hurting their sales.

    If we continue with Monster Cafe Saltillo one of our goals is to make a giant King Kong on our roof. We have already met with the artist etc. Trouble is…It is $1,000 we do not have right now.

      Nice! This one I saw was an inflatable, so it moved around up there, which was kind of cool.

      You know I was tempted to go in and ask how much for the monkey. šŸ˜‰

    Love it! We have a Cash for Gold place in town that has a giant gorilla statue in front of it that has huge Mr. T style chain/dollar sign pendant on. It makes me laugh every time I pass it. (I call him “Bling Kong”.)
