LONDON (Reuters) - Die-hard fans of football club Plymouth Argyle will soon be able to order a personalised funeral, complete with a decorated coffin and catering at the ground.
The second division club, which has green and white as its colours, told Reuters on Friday it will be offering the themed farewell to fans with the help of a local funeral service.
"With the items the Argyle Superstore has on offer for new-born babies, it shows that it is now really possible for people to show their support...from the cradle to the grave," said Michael Dunford, Plymouth Argyle chief executive in a statement.
While some football fans settle for having their ashes scattered on the ground of their favourite club, Plymouth will offer their all-inclusive service from February 10, the date of their match against Sunderland.
"There's no better way to mark the passion in your or your loved ones' life than a personalised funeral," the club said.
