Schedule unearthed for Frozen Dead Guy Days
ESTES PARK — Frozen Dead Guy Days, the quirky festival that sprang from tales of a Norwegian man’s cryogenically frozen corpse in a high-country Tuff-Shed, has released its schedule of events and music for the three-day festival in Estes Park that kicks off March 27.
It will be the fourth year since the event was purchased and moved from Nederland.
Events will include the festival’s signature coffin races and Grandpa’s Blue Ball, a Cryogenic Cannibal Chase 8K, a polar plunge and a pub crawl with themed drinks.
Frozen Dead Guy Days, which had been held in Nederland in March for two decades before outgrowing the town, sprang from an immigrant’s efforts to keep his deceased grandfather packed in cryogenic freeze in a Tuff Shed until future advances in medical technology might revive him. The frozen corpse now is housed in a cryonics museum at the Stanley Hotel.
