You have obviously never experienced Ghanaian culture or you wouldn't question this.
Funerals in Ghana are occasions for a lot of dressing up and dancing. They usually take place several months after the actual death and are a time when the whole community gets together to celebrate the life of the person.
I usually found myself going to a funeral at least once a month - sometimes even more.
The actual death is obviously a little more sombre but the funeral is something else!

Obviously, there are a few of us who haven't, but it's on our list.

All the attention I got in Korea. I was a metaphysical superstar compared to Jesus and Cruise.
