Casa Molina Speedway & Wilmot - the bull


 

Not only do I not have pictures of this - but even the old-timers still working at Casa Molina do not remember when the bull was in front of the restaurant right near Speedway instead of on the side of the parking lot as it is now. I was first taken to the restaurant as an infant when it was recently opened and we've been having family gatherings there ever since. I remember the bull was much smaller than the one that's there now at the west boundary of the parking lot adjacent to the parking lot of the next building over. The smaller one was almost straight south of the main entrance and very near Speedway. It was frequently getting damaged by cars leaving the parking lot backing into it. The final damage was so bad that they removed it and built the new one which exists to this day. Can anyone confirm the earlier, smaller bull statue? Or am I dreaming?


 

It was the same bull, but curbside and faced East. (Mid 70's memory from then-UA-college-student.)
