BOZEMAN — If you noticed something missing in downtown Bozeman on Friday, you're not wrong.
The iconic rearing horse that has been a mainstay in downtown Bozeman since the 1960s was taken down by Signs of Montana on Friday morning, Sept. 6, 2024.
According to Rob Funderburk, the manager of Bangtail Bikes, about a half dozen people have been to the store to ask about the whereabouts of the horse named Jubalee—spelled with an “a.”
But you shouldn't worry about Jubalee's departure.
Signs of Montana will be cleaning up the palamino and rebuilding the platform he stands on for many more years of enjoyment.
According to Funderburk, Jubalee should be back in action in four to six weeks. Signs of Montana will also re-install the horse once repaired.
Jubalee was originally part of a western wear store and has siblings scattered across the west.
