You Know you're at a Ghetto Funeral.....
* If 3 generations get out of a car to beat down someone for cutting into the funeral procession.
* If you got relatives coming in shackled from the state pen to pay their respects.
* A fist fight breaks out.
* When people breaking down crying trying to climb in the casket.
* When the dead person is wearing $3000 worth of jewelry.
* When friends and family wear T-shirts with a photo of the deceased on it..to the funeral!
* When someone walks around to view the body and yells out "DAT WUZ MY NIGGA!"
* When the brothas are standin' around drankin' after the service and someone..pours a lil' supmtin' out on the ground for the homie who's no longer with us".
* When one of the relatives keeps fainting before, during and after the service.
* When everybody is trying to get the flowers and take them home.
* When the dinner after the funeral turns into a family reunion, all the old folk break out the cards to play spades/tonk, somebody start playing some Marvin Gaye, and all the older men start talking about how they used to pimp back in the day.
* When the obituary was made on a home typewriter and it's filled with misspelled words...even the name of the deceased!
*When the picture on the obituary is the deceased license photo!
* When everybody trying to out cry one another as if whoever cries the loudest is going to get a prize after the funeral...
* If the deceased didn't have 2 nickels to rub together but leaves the world in a $15,000 silk lined coffin.
* When the soloist sings about 15 verses of "Precious Lord" or "His eye is on the sparrow" and "I won't complain". When the funeral is two weeks after the death.
