You cannot make this news up. Heh. From Townhall.com, “Ha: Fidel Castro’s Funeral Vehicle Broke Down Mid-Procession“.
An almost amusing sight at Fidel Castro’s funeral procession: the car carrying his remains reportedly broke down and had to be pushed by soldiers.
The vehicle was reportedly Russian-built.
Pictures of the scene quickly spread on Twitter, with people calling it a “fitting metaphor” for the Castro regime: 1) Look no further for Cuba metaphors – Fidel’s final journey ends with a breakdown 2) How fitting: The jeep carrying Fidel Castro’s ashes broke down and soldiers had to push it the rest of the way to the cemetery. 3) Cuban soldiers push Fidel’s broken-down funeral vehicle — an Econ teacher’s dream-come-true for a metaphor HT.
