Frozen Dead Guy Festival

[Perknose]

It was bought, but will stay put in Nederland, Colorado. All is good. The corpse of Bredo Morstoel, the 89 year old Norwegien guy frozen and on ice since he died 20 years ago, remains, as does the festival -- "complete with coffin races, tours of the shed where the body is kept on ice and, of course, lots of beer" -- held annually in his name.

yup i work in boulder and Nederland is just up the road. the frozen dead guy festival is always interesting.

FYI the "body" is not kept in the shed on ice. its been gone a long time and i believe was shipped back to Norway.
