The Perfect Gift for the Ultimate Red Sox Fan

Apropos of a comment to the previous post, I came across this photo in today’s Boston Globe.

Yes, I follow the Boston Red Sox, and I try to see them play once every year, either at Fenway Park or in some interesting city elsewhere in the country. (It’s also an excuse for another long-distance train ride.) But there is a limit to my obsession and it falls well short of this.

These caskets, emblazoned with numerous Red Sox and Major League Baseball logos, sell for $4500 and are being offered by at least one Boston area funeral home.

Whatever turns you on — or off — I guess.
