There's really nothing I can say about this. It pretty much explains itself.
nbc30.com - News - Tenant Leaves Behind 70,000 Beer Cans
OGDEN, Utah -- When a Utah man moved out of his townhouse, his landlord found quite a collection -- an estimated 70,000 beer cans.
The landlord said the man had been living in the home for about eight years and never threw away a single can.
After a massive clean-up effort, the cans were recycled for about $800.
All of the cans were Coors Light. The man said he has quit drinking and now has a job.
70,000 cans of Coors Light? That's like the equivalent of a Canadian two-four, isn't it?

P.S. Can you imagine the beer farts? Probably had to sterilize the place.
It reminds me of college. We made furniture out of our old returnable bottle cases. I once took the "coffee table" in for the deposit money and bought a pack of smokes. And, I think another roomate cashed in our Chez for a can of soup.
ReplyDeleteCanadian two-four. hahaha.. I haven't heard that in ages. Where I live, beer is sold in denominations of sixers, twelvers and cases.

I'm surprised Coors didn't want to make that into a commercial or some kind of monument! HA!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what his liver is like?
That is....
8,750 cans a year
729 a month
24 cans a day
1 an hour...if he didn't sleep...so 2 an hour!
MAN!
That is my new retirement plan right there, cash in the cans at 60. 2 cans an hour for 365 days for 40 years . . . that's 700,800 cans - forget college and a job I'm getting drunk. :-D

Geez .... in Utah, of all places. I figured he would have had a tough time getting his hands on 70,000 cans of beer there. Maybe that's why he kept them ! Tina http://journals.aol.com/onemoretina/Ridealongwithme
ReplyDeleteNo kidding, Tina! It ain't just the desert that's DRY here in Utah.
