'Til Death Do You Part


There are people who admit liking PBR and there are guys who love it.

Bill Bramanti in South Chicago Heights, Ill. loves it.

He is such a Pabst Blue Ribbon fan that he custom ordered a coffin designed to look like a can of the stuff.

Bramanti, 67, isn't sick or anything, technically, he just wants to have his coffin on standby.

He's actually using it at parties as a cooler and showing it off to the Associated Press where this story broke. The Paducah Sun featured it in Monday's paper on 11A but I just had to point it out here again.

I'm not sure if this is entertainment news or just entertaining news but I tip my hat to this guy with my creepiness detector beeping a little.

And, yes, Bramanti has already laid in it to make sure his 5-feet-9 inches and 280 pounds fits. Apparently it's a perfect fit.
