It's going to be warmish this weekend so hopefully they keep the dry ice stocked up (stacked up?) for ol' Bredo.


I love this: The Beeck sisters -- director Robin, producer Kathy, and promoter Shelly -- moved with their parents to Boulder in 1976, and all three attended CU. Their 1998 short subject, "Grandpa's in the TUFF SHED," and its expanded, feature-length 2003 sequel, “Grandpa’s Still in the TUFF SHED,” helped inspire the world-famous Frozen Dead Guy Days.

http://www.facebook.com/notes/frozen...s/497995525974

In case it's not clear there really is a frozen dead guy in a Tuff Shed:

"Grandpa's Still in the TUFF SHED" is the story of Norwegian Trygve Bauge, a now-deported Nederlander who kept his grandfather Bredo Morstoel's corpse on ice on his property in hopes of restoring him to life one day. The film follows the wacky narrative through the consequences of the town's discovery of his plans, and their eventual adoption and celebration of Grandpa after Bauge was forcibly returned to his homeland.
