Various dinosaurs at Ocean City Maryland putt-putt golf courses.

Dinosaur Kingdom II:
DK2 is full of dinosaurs, of course, but it's also populated with Yankee soldiers from the Civil War, a mad scientist, a time machine, a lasso-flinging Abraham Lincoln, lumpy green "Mr. Slime" monsters, a lost buried treasure, and Confederate general Stonewall Jackson with a 15-foot-long robotic arm.
....
We asked [Mark Cline] for an example of a possible future display at Dinosaur Kingdom II. He pointed to one of the paths in the woods and said he might build a love shack for Dinosaur People at the end of it, where visitors could see proof that "the local hillbillies got romantic with some of the dinosaurs."

If you can't keep it in your pants, keep it in the Cretaceous!

I can't believe Dixie the Dinosaur wasn't in this list. She used to be on the side of I80 in Dixon, CA. I used to pass her all the time back in the nineties.

Dixie the Dinosaur - 1997


She got moved via helicopter to Benicia, turned into 'Bennie the Dinosaur,' then was eventually moved to private property in the hills to ignominiously decay into dinosaur garbage.
