THE PERFECT TENANT
Got beer???? A landlord's nightmare.
A SINGLE GUY LIVED IN THIS TOWNHOUSE FOR 8 YEARS IN OGDEN UTAH, USA.
THE LANDLORD THOUGHT HE WAS THE BEST RENTER BECAUSE HE NEVER CALLED OR COMPLAINED AND WAS NEVER LATE ON A PAYMENT.
THESE PICTURES DON'T EVEN COME CLOSE TO WHAT IT REALLY LOOKED LIKE.
CENTURY 21 REALTY HAD ALREADY MOVED SOME OF THE CANS OUT, AND THEY HAD CAVED IN THE TUNNELS THAT THE RENTER HAD MADE TO GET TO THE BEDROOM, BATHROOM, AND KITCHEN .
All this, yet you still do not see any dust, scattered clothing, or dirty dishes anywhere .
Other than having a minor drinking problem, he was basically a very clean, organized person. Add to this, the fact that he was concerned about his health, proven by the fact that he drank "Light" beer.
Beer cans by the tens of thousands. Mountains of cans burying the furniture. The water and heat were shut off, apparently on purpose by the tenant, who evidently drank Coors Light beer exclusively for the eight years he lived there.
There was an estimated 70,000 beer cans in the townhouse. To accumulate that amount of cans, the resident must have consumed an average of 24 beers a day for the 8 years of his tenancy!!

At least if the landlord recycles them it should pay for the cleanup. 0 -
True Story!
$700.00 worth of cans.
Sounds low.

In Iowa we have a can/ bottle deposit of 5 cents each. Just think how much money a guy would get at the redemption center for all those. 70,000x .05= $3,500 [:p] 0 -
And I thought I had a drinking problem[;)] 0 -
Yes, Iowa has the 5 cent thing, and if you buy your coke over in Blair Nebraska, you will get Iowa cans worth 5 cents each! 0 -
Just when you think you've seen and heard it all.[xx(] 0 -
can you imagine the stink? 0 -
WOW, you get .10 in MI. 0 -
OK here is a little math problem for you guys. It takes an average of 24 cans to make a pound. Current UBC price is around 71 cents a pound. Was the $700.00 a good price or not?

Y'all are totally missing the Big (and gun-related) Picture:
Imagine the nearly endless plinking you could do to all those cans!!! All you need is 70,000 rounds of .22 LR.....0 -
Had a renter like that once. Not THAT bad, but between all the rooms, they left a truckload of cans for me to haul off. 0 -
Can you picture the guy stumbling through that mess half lit?
Funnier than Kirk Douglas in "The Villain".

Yikes!
We have had some bad tenants over the years, but never one like that!
Good reason for the landlord to inspect the property once in a while.0 -
Totally baffling how people can live like that. 0 -

At 24 cans/pound and the current price here (50 cents/#) there was $1,450 worth. These pictures date from some time in 2005 . . .0 -
The cans are one thing, the possible award winning microbiology science project festering underneath it is another. 0 -
.68 cents a pound here, but i would rather drive them up to Michigan 0
