Can't you just picture Andy and Barney doing this for Otis. Johnna Fayetteville, AR
Town drunk was so beloved that even the local police mourn his death9 hrs ago Alvin Cote racked up 843 public drunkenness arrests during his time as a homeless alcoholic in Saskatoon, Canada. So by the time he died last month at the age of 59, local cops knew and tolerated Cote (Catchphrase: "I'm a fighter") so much that they put his police sketch on T-shirts to commemorate his death. Cote was so beloved during his life, the police gave him eyeglasses from charity boxes earmarked for Africa; they bought him food and celebrated his birthday. It might seem troublesome to lionize a town drunk, but if a man can be judged by how he's remembered after he's gone, Cote was much, much more than that.
