Fan asks Browns to be his pallbearers so team can “let him down one last time”

JULY 8, 2013 BY WILL GUERRA

The Cleveland Browns haven’t won a playoff game since 1994. I’m sure that is not a fact that Browns’ fans need repeated to them. But just to drive the point home, in 1994 Forrest Gump and Lion Kingwere the top performing movies and I was deciding whether I should take a nap or stay up and have apple sauce in pre-school.

LarryBrownSports.com passes along a comical, but ultimately sad story about Scott E. Entsminger. Entsminger was a season ticket holder who passed away this 4th of July at the age of 55. What Entsminger wrote in his obituary is what makes this story funny.

Entsminger requested that his pallbearers all be Browns’ players so the team could “let him down one last time.”

Entsminger is described as a “fun-loving” person which is obvious from his request. These last requests from historically bad teams are becoming more frequent and this latest one is the funniest one so far. With the Browns (among others) not near striking distance from the playoffs, I would expect these comical request to continue.
