A ‘BEER’ CAN MADE TO BE BURIED

Some of us plan for next week, some for next year, some for retirement, and some of us plan for our final rest, hoping that it is a long time off.

Chicago resident Bill Bramanti has taken that planning one step further, making sure that his final resting place expresses his undying love for his favourite beverage.

Although he has no plans to ‘kick the bucket’ any time soon, Bramanti has ordered a specially made coffin, painted silver and laminated to resemble a Pabst Blue Ribbon beer can.

To celebrate the delivery of the casket, the 67-year-old threw a party for family and friends at the funeral home. The casket was filled with ice and a pile of real cans of Pabst Blue Ribbon.
