Roadside Grave of Solid Muldoon - Beulah, CO - Roadside Attractions on Waymarking.com

"On Colorado Hwy. 78 lies Solid Muldoon, known by P.T. Barnum and many ne'er-do-wells as a petrified seven foot man exhibited in Colorado in 1876 for .50 cents a look, and disappeared somewhere along the line. According to the roadside wooden grave marker, old Solid lies beneath, never to be exhibited again." (from (visit link) )

"The Solid Muldoon was a supposedly prehistoric "petrified human body" unearthed in 1877, at a spot now known as Muldoon Hill, near Beulah, Colorado. The figure enjoyed a brief tour of the United States before it was revealed to be a hoax. It was said to have been named after wrestler William Muldoon, whose nickname was "The Solid Man". This nickname was itself a reference to a comic song called "Muldoon, the Solid Man", written by Edward Harrigan." (from (visit link) )
