Awesome fan!

Post by Funkytown »

NFL fans usually are fans for life. This even can include the afterlife.

Scott E. Entsminger, 55, of Mansfield, Ohio passed away on July 4. We'll include one of his dying wishes from his obituary in the Columbus Dispatch below:

"A lifelong Cleveland Browns fan and season ticket holder, he also wrote a song each year and sent it to the Cleveland Browns as well as offering other advice on how to run the team. He respectfully requests six Cleveland Browns pall bearers so the Browns can let him down one last time," it reads, via CBSSports.com.

Any Vikings fans considering something like this? :)

Well, there's certainly enough ex-QB's to fulfill that request.

I've heard that joke before (it's an easy <insert bad team here> joke), but that someone actually did it is funny.

Yeah. I've heard it before, too. But the fact that it made the national news is pretty nifty!

UPDATE: Browns representatives presented a Groza No. 76 jersey with Entsminger's name on the back to the family Tuesday.
