Weird World: cemetery for football fans (what next, cemetery for basketball fans?)

A German football club is planning to set up a cemetery for fans who want to take their love for the game to the grave. Hamburg SV chairman Christian Reichert said the cemetery would be built opposite the stadium and have room for more than 150 graves. "It won't be full of colourful headstones and we don't want to turn the graveyard into a bazaar for fan merchandise, but it will be a place for true fans to find their final resting place," said Reichert. He added that memorial stones to some of the club's greatest players would be erected in the cemetery - and a display of the club's emblem made from flower beds.
