Bury me in a beer can

It sounds like a bad Jeff Foxworthy joke, but it's not.

Some dude in Illinois wants to be buried in a giant can of Pabst Blue Ribbon.

And far be it from good sense or taste to deny Bill Bramanti what he wants.

This tasty adult beverage doubles as a place of eternal rest! And makes Julienne fries!

He built himself a beer can casket and threw a party for his friends where he filled his silver sudsy place of eternal rest with ice and brewskis, The Associated Press.

"Why put such a great novelty piece up on a shelf in storage when you could use it only the way Bill Bramanti would use it?" said Bramanti's daughter, Cathy.

Though Bramanti, 67, says he doesn't plan on using his beer casket anytime soon, it's ready and waiting, should his keg be tapped.
