unless it's private, don't think you needs to be invited to go to a funeral

Information on the funeral, Monday at 1pm. 

Some of you have no idea how much Ben Weider did for the sport, and what he accomplished outside the sport for many people. 

The Funeral is at Paperman & Sons at 3888 Jean Talon West on Monday, October 20 at 1 pm in Montreal, Canada.  Burial at the Victorian Cemetery Association, de la savane.

But Shiva is strictly private.

If we used more than one bus, it would be a Ronvoy.

So what you are saying is you didn't get an invite.

Exactly.  And if you are Vince Basile, you regularly drive two hours to attend the funerals of strangers.

omg is he that desperate to "be involved with the sport"?

Basile went to Lee Priest's grandfather's funeral, even though he had never met the man (or Lee, for that matter).

Are you serious?  You can't be serious.  Tell me this is a joke.  

Otherwise this is the saddest display of - well I don't know what to call it - that I have ever seen.

in case any of you don't already know this and live in the US, if you have ever been convicted of a crime (even misdemeanors like DUI) or even charged with a serious crime and had the charges eventually dropped within the past 10 years ago they will turn your ass away at the us/canadian border.  canucks are allowed to come and go as they please though, its a nice double standard.

go try it out for yourself lol... I know people that have had felony charges dropped (clean records with no convictions) over 5 years ago and old DUI's they just flat out turn you around at the border after making the 3-4 hour drive... they must have access to same systems that law enforcement in the US use.

I assume it started at some point after 9/11.... not sure when exactly just how things stand at the moment.  I haven't gone since before that but I know many people who have and the protocol has completely changed, they run criminal background checks.
