Lobos - gone & forgotten in New Castle

Along I-70 in Indiana is the exit to New Castle.  It's the hometown of Steve Alford, former UNM basketball coach...and the home of the Steve Alford All American Inn.  They're proud of him, there.   The website shows a picture of a giant sneaker in front of the motel.

But, you know what...that sneaker's been re-painted.  Just like Alford, who left Albuquerque and is gone but not forgotten, the giant Lobo sneaker is gone...replaced by the baby blue and yellow of UCLA!

I don't know what the "Prowler Group" is...but I think it has something to do with a car by that name - and the "group" - is probably some folks who own them or made them.
