Go ahead. Spread Grandma around at 'It's A Small World'.  Then call a code HEPA.

I imagine the same thing happens in Vegas. I know I helped spread a friend's Father around several casinos there on one trip. It is OK for you now, all of the casinos we spread him at have all been destroyed in the name of progress. ;)

I thought the code would be for the breathing masks in case the wind shifts.


I can think of better places I would want my ashes spread.

Singer Tim McGraw threw out the first pitch at game 3 of the 2008 World Series in Philadelphia.

After the pitch, he pulled some of his father's ashes out of his pocket and sprinkled them on the mount.

Tug McGraw got the got the last out in 1980 to cement the Phillie's first World Championship.

So the ashes got spit on by every subsequent pitcher on that mound?

How ignoble.

...just realize that the parks know about this sort of thing. They’re prepared for it. There’s a process. And when all is said and done, the human ashes you left at the Happiest Place on Earth will probably just end up in the trash.

I wondered what they did with the vacuumed-up stuff.

How ignoble.

Given that Tug was quite the expectorator, I don't think he would mind. Besides, the mound was home.
