This Would Have Been The Ultimate Storage Wars


I could have just seen the guys from Storage Wars bidding on this unit. This would have been the ultimate episode. Barry could have worn a doctor's coat and drove his cooler and it would have been perfect. When a man did win the bidding on a unit in Pensacola, Florida, he almost immediately had to call the police. The unit had previously been owned by a former medical examiner in the county. Inside the unit were the brains and organs of almost 100 people. It also contained a large number of human limbs. Now, I know you can't go inside the unit before bidding, but didn't anyone notice anything? Some were in Tupperware and one was in a cup from a gas station. No smell? Police are investigating to see whether any laws were broken.

yawnathon said...

A Medical Examiner kept these?! How is hoarding body parts from what I assume are autopsies not a crime?

Zombies are near... Everyone remember double tap to the head. 3 months store of food and water for your family and pets.

smash said...

Vicki! Where have you been :) did you read the space opera that was FFF?

hunter said...

Oh Florida, you just keep giving.

mikey said...

I have questions - did the former ME die and no one made the payments on the unit because I can't believe the ME hasn't been called out on this. The smell had to be horrible.

This is the shit my nightmares are made of *shudder*. I just read about a hidden medical museum in Paris, where you can see dead people in jars. Probably not a place I'd spend my vacation in.

Seriously, it is ALWAYS Florida!

Grace said...

But they DO go in the unit before bidding. At least, they get to look inside.

Yes, my recently adopted home state brings the crazy. FYI, this isn't even the craziest thing I've read this week.

For God's sake, don't burp that Tupperware!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lalaland said...

i think there are different kinds of auctions.. sometimes they get to look in and other times its a close auction where they dont get a peek. but how could they not smell it?!? grosss! only in florida.

evergrey said...

That's effing disgusting! Dang Florida, you're earning the ArmPit of America award fast.

lalaland said...

*closed* auction

CanuckNan said...

What happened with B. Profane & FFF? I am nosy, yes. Have been lurking while on vacay from teaching, and check in daily. What was drama, if you don't mind me asking...

SusanB said...

I finally read the FFF yesterday. With all the comments removed, I have very little idea what went on there.

califblondy said...

I' still waiting to find out too CanuckNan. I went to Vegas for a long weekend and missed it!

Serious, what's wrong with Florida peeps?

smash said...

B Profane was convinced he knew who enty was. He led a very cryptic tale with lots of clues, which he took down around saturday night maybe.

I wrote all of it down but am clueless.

CanuckNan said...

What does FFF stand for? I am outta the loop, and very curious. Anyone want to give us outta-the-loopers a quick synopsis???

Hammer_Girl said...

I'm ashamed that I live in Florida. I'm used to the backwoods, redneck, hillbilly stories but damn...

smash said...

Four for Friday.

Del Riser said...

Brandy and Jarrod would have argued over the price after their peek inside, Darryl wouldn't have thought Tupperware had the WOW factor, Barry would have lost interest if their were no trunks and Dave would have Yuuuuped to victory and sold the stuff to a guy he knows who makes zombie movies.

People are just too freakin' weird!

CanuckNan said...

Hmmm. Wonder how I missed that. I enjoy the comments, but don't read every thread of them. Must've missed it! I live in LA area & am familiar with some lawyers around here, as my stepdad was a judge back in the day, but now am just a lowly, underpaid teacher with a bad gossip habit!!!

CanuckNan said...

...and I always want to edit Enty's entries for grammar!

Vikingwench said...

The unit's previous renter was an associate medical examiner for Escambia County, who also performed private autopsies (family-requested)throughout the Florida panhandle. Most of the "specimens" found are believed to be from those private autopsies. He was fired years ago and his medical license was revoked. People were allowed to "walk through" and look at the units from the hallway, but not to enter the units. The specimens could not be seen and were found after the auction winners entered the unit. Also, the specimens have been there for several years, so I imagine anything that would create an odor while decaying had already gotten past the stink stage.

Vikingwench said...

I do love my home, although sometimes I regret to admit I live in Pensacola.

Alicia said...

Totally Silence of the Lambs style

AlexT said...

Also a reason not to buy used Tupperware.

You're welcome for that unavoidable mental image. :)

musesx9 said...

What was the cryptic tale????? Please share!

Jennifer H. said...

Being Florida, it's entirely possible that no laws were broken!

I, too, missed the FFF fun. So, who was enty revealed to be? If not someone famous, or the person who stocked this storage locker in Florida, then who cares?

Andy Dick?

Hugh "the Polar Bear" from "Ice Road Truckers?"

Puck, from "Real World?"

Jessie said...

Where IS B? And kudos to people who think they know who Enty is because I wouldn't even know where to start.

Mango said...

I never click the "follow up email box" but when I saw that the FFF thread was going to get interesting, I posted something and clicked the follow up email and got all the emails and honestly it doesn't make sense why some were deleted. Nothing particularly relevant, important or personal was revealed in some of the posts.

Basically, it was a tempest in a teapot. B. Profane thinks he figured out who Enty is (and he may be right) BUT if he is, Enty basically told everyone his true identity. Which seems silly. And we don't want the blog to end, sooooo we are going to pretend it was all a dream.

califblondy said...

Sigh...back in the good old days of CDAN FFF meant Full Frontal Fridays and that was more interesting than trying to figure out Enty's true identity. Jeesh, he's not a super hero.

Or is he?

KSam said...

Yuuuuuupppppp!!!!!!

5th generation Floridian, here. I am rarely surprised by what happens in our state, but to be fair, this kind of stuff does happen in other states as well...right? We can't be the ONLY ones storing body parts, eating peoples' faces, shooting door-to-door meat salesmen (just happened not too far from where I live - guy claimed "stand your ground law" - meat salesman made him nervous).

Personally, I think it's all the non-Floridians moving here that are ruining everything. I was once told that the city I live in is the "witness protection capital of the world." Sheesh.

Agent**It said...

@Cornbread, SoFla is OK and I like the area you are in. But once you get too close to the Everglades... triple tap. Whenever I cross Alligator Ally, I think, Oh, if those Gators could talk:)
