Got this as a email. OMG
A SINGLE GUY LIVED IN THIS TOWNHOUSE FOR EIGHT YEARS IN OGDEN, UTAH
THE LANDLORD THOUGHT HE WAS THE BEST
RENTER BECAUSE HE NEVER CALLED OR
COMPLAINED AND WAS NEVER LATE
ON A PAYMENT.

THESE PICTURES DON'T EVEN COME CLOSE TO
WHAT IT REALLY LOOKED LIKE.
"CENTURY 21 REALTY HAD ALREADY MOVE D
SOME OF THE CANS OUT, AND THEY HAD
CAVED IN THE TUNNELS THAT THE RENTER HAD
MADE TO GET TO THE BEDROOM, BATHROOM,
AND KITCHEN
All this, yet you still do not see any dust,
scattered clothing, or dirty dishes anywhere .
Other than having a minor drinking problem,
he was basically a very clean, organized person.
Add to this, the fact that he was concerned
about his health, proven by the fact that he
drank "Light" beer.
Beer cans by the tens of thousands. Mountains
of cans burying the furniture. The water and
heat were shut off, apparently on purpose by
the tenant, who evidently drank Coors Light
beer exclusively for the eight years he lived
there.
There was an estimated 70,000 beer cans in
the townhouse. To accumulate that number
of cans, the resident must have consumed an
average of 24 beers a day for the 8 years of
his tenancy!!

pretty sure it's by the pound here. It would have been worth the drive to take them to Oregon to recycle them though.

(X) Wow! That's a lot of beer. I had some guys that were camped up the hill from us one year on a bow hunt that could pound down the beer like that. They were from Wisconsin. I've met a few fellows from there that could drink some serious beer.
