Coming attraction: Allosaurus silhouette to welcome motorists

The marketing of the Greybull area as a place where dinosaurs once roamed freely continues.
The latest example is a 10-foot tall, 14-foot-long silhouette of an allosaurus that will soon be installed west of town along U.S. Highway 14-16-20 as part of a collaboration between Grow Greybull and the Greybull Museum.
Eddie Johnson, who heads the museum’s board of directors, said the silhouette is expected to arrive in Greybull on Friday, Feb. 16 and be installed that same day.  While Johnson is uncertain of precisely when this will happen, he’s is hopeful some residents turn out for the occasion.
So why a silhouette?
“I saw an ad showing the silhouette between Casper and Shoshoni and i guess you could say it piqued my interest,” he said. “I found out who did it, made a call ... and got a cost estimate.”
