A Taiwanese son recently hired a stripper to preform a the funeral of his 103-year-old father. According to reports the father was a bit of a strip club afficianado.
From Ananova:
Cai Jinlai passed away at the age of 103 after a three mile walk into town to vote. He was the oldest person in his village and had more than 100 descendants.
His son said his father was famous locally for his interest in strip clubs: “He would travel around the island with his friends to see these shows,” he added.
I got this from Weird Asia News, which also includes a link to this academic discussion about funeral strippers in Taiwan and other Asian cultures.
