The Ferris Wheel Finds Its Way in New Places
Share

Unfortunately, people are often put through the pain of attending a funeral. This often happens several times a year. Sadly, mortality is sad for anyone involved inside and outside of family. Bill Stoodges has been one of the larger Ferris wheel manufacturers for the last 3 decades (Stoodges 3 Inc.). He has seen an opportunity to drive revenue by having a Ferris wheel right outside as people leave a funeral in the parking lot. Here is what Bill had to say about this business venture, “Look, this idea is morbid and pretty fnnn ridiculous, however people leave a funeral….for a few bucks they can hit the Ferris wheel and smile/laugh off the pain of loss……I hate to make money this way, but mostly I am making people smile and making a few bucks…I am truly sorry for their loss.” MPL reported that Bill’s brother Moe died from a Ferris wheel accident….oh….not from the Ferris wheel….he was on his way to a funeral for Larry.
