Description: If you've spent any time in the Midwest, odds are that you've come across at least one giant cowboy sitting on a faux wood fence, waving his hat in a welcoming gesture. These iconic statues were the mascots for Western Pancake House, a chain of restaurants founded by Joe Skaggs in the late '60s. The restaurant's grew to support 36 locations across Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana, and at one point was the fastest growing restaurant chain in the Midwest. Despite his success, Skaggs decided to retire after a heart attack in 1982, and simply closed up shop. This left a lot of folks looking for a place to get a good breakfast, and left a lot of folks wondering for years to come where all these hat waving cowboys came from.
