p2pnet - rss feed: Getting canned: beer to die for
p2pnet news | Cool Stuff:- Here’s the kind of advertising money can’t buy.
Chicago’s Bill Bramanti wants to give a whole new meaning to the expression ‘getting canned’.
He believes Pabst Blue Ribbon beer is to die for —- so much so that he plans to be buried in a casket decorated with the company livery.
“I’m going to use it as a cooler until I really need it,” the Southtown Star has Bramanti, 67, saying.
The coffin is, “laminated with the design of a red, white and blue PBR beer can,” says the story, adding:
“The inside contains a black liner to prevent seepage so Bramanti can store cold brews in it until he winds up inside. On Saturday, it was filled with ice and PBR. Bramanti thinks it can fit about 15 cases of beer and 150 pounds of ice.”
And Pabst didn’t even have to pay for it.
The coffin was made and designed by local funeral home.
Will Pabst sue for copyright violation, do you think?

Pabst should play on the “part of healthy living” angle with this one, and embrace this guy.
By my definition, Pabst is among the dredge of beers that include Hamms, and other cheapie brews, that we would buy as teenagers when we didn’t have enough money to buy real beer. Frequently referred to as “Paps Beer” (slurred to sound like “Pap Smear”)
“Slammin Hamms” - Because you don’t want that flavor on your tongue any longer than you have to.
