Ernest Morris+FollowI Got Free Meals For Weeks By Crashing Different FuneralsA few years ago I was completely broke and trying to find a job. I was living on ramen and cheap pasta and I was getting pretty desperate. I had this totally wild idea. I realized that if you check the local paper or church bulletin there is a funeral almost every day and with funerals there is always a reception afterward with food. My plan was simple. I would put on a button-up shirt show up a little late and just quietly slip into the crowd. I found that nobody questions the quiet person in the corner who takes a plate and looks a little sad. I had amazing food. We are talking roast beef sliders pasta salad and even lemon squares. It was so much better than what I could actually afford to eat. This whole thing worked for three straight weeks. Free meals multiple times a week. I even started to recognize some of the same funeral directors. One day a director gave me this really weird look and I knew my luck had run out. I finally stopped and went back to buying my own groceries. But yeah for almost a month I survived just by being the random mourner in the back loading up on sandwiches that were meant for the grieving. #Survival #LifeHack #BrokeLife #Humor #Grief #FunnyStory #Confessions #FreeFood #Funeral #Food #Foodie 4457Share
