I think if you are a gangbanger it's probably a good idea.

Yeah thats what I was thinking. I want to be cremated. I don't want to look like a clay wax figure, EFF that. Well, unless they let me wear my gea' bro.

Did they have Joe Diffie there to play "Prop Me Up Beside The Jukebox"?

That would have been awesome.

Here's what happened...

He was drunk one night joking around with his buddies. The conversation got out of hand. They started talking about time travel and other drunken nonsense. He said something like, "Screw that. When I die, I don't want to be laying there like some old has-been. I want to be propped up with my chin-up..." He died shortly afterward.

The rest is history.

It's actually ghetto garb. Gangster garb is a subset of ghetto garb, and sometimes ghetto garb and white bread suburbia overlap, and sometimes it overlaps with ghetto hollywood....

His brother is wearing the original sticker on his hat.....that qualifies as level I gangster around here. Level II is leaving the sticker & price tag on....Yes, I have actually seen this.

I don't know what level III consists of, I'm not even sure if it exists. If anyone knows of level III, please, do tell.

I saw a guy in the mall wearing a fake bullet proof vest!:faint:

Does that count at level III?:supergrin:

Maybe I'm getting old but I can't recall when the death of a mother's son became funny. If anything ever happened to my little girl I would go to the ends of the earth to make her final wish come true regardless of ludicrous it seemed. Put yourself in his mother's or brother's shoes and its not so funny anymore. Just my .02

I was sooo funny yet so sad....He couldn't have been older than 20.

He was wearing jeans down past his ass, a shirt, vest over the shirt, and about 20 gold chains in front of the vest.

BUT the best part of it all was he saw me looking at him like he was crazy and tried to give me the "I'm hard" look and I laughed at him.:rofl:

That's pretty odd... i wonder what the cause of death was.

I was wondering the same thing...

seems fishy for a young guy like that to just be dead under a bridge and be in good enough shape to stand at the funeral.

Drug OD maybe?

As sad as it is for a mother to loose her son, I honestly have to say if this helps them cope with it, good for them I guess.

Yes, the death of some gangsta's son, can be funny. Not always, but sometimes, yes. Raise your kids not to be as such, and its not funny, but this case... OMFG HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH.

PS-Everyone dies, have fun with it at least.
