Horns and udders both, like the freaky-ass characters from that CG movie Barnyard. Just not quite right.

Sadly, that's not limited to Denver. Edmonton and Calgary both did the cow/bull thing - Edmonton's was a one-summer thing (they were auctioned for charity afterwards), but I think Calgary's are still around.
Whoever makes those things made a mint, I'm thinking...

At least we're not Breckenridge. They have 6 foot tall cowboy boots. Seriously.
