Now there's no difference between an Irish wake and an Irish funeral. There has to be a joke here somewhere about having a cold one.

Not a bad idea. The deceased would approve.

Most appropriate if the decedent offed himself via DUI.

LOL! Plus, if they ever run out of booze, they can always pour embalming fluid, eh?

An actor friend of mine did a play in Chicago called “Flanagan’s Wake” very funny play, it’s a lot of improv but still very funny. They were talking about a woman who went to a wake where they served booze and the back they played cards. With a heavy Irish brogue the priest said “She never should have gone, There was liquor in the front and poker in the back.”

You ever been to a funeral where a fight breaks out?
I have. And they hadn’t even started drinking yet.

Anyone at my funeral who isn’t drunk doesn’t understand that I’m just fine, the problem is theirs.

Take a bunch of people who have a great deal of history, put them under major stress, add alcohol.
IMHO this will not turn out well.
