The Nederland, Colorado, Chamber of Commerce has been staging the Frozen Dead Guy Days annually for ten years. The name comes from the corpse of Bredo Morstoel, who died in 1989 and has been stored in dry ice in the area since 1993. The festival, which attracted 15,000 people this year, includes a coffin race, a parade of hearses, and more typical events as well.

Interim chamber president Blue Hessner says the chamber wants to sell rights to the event and concentrate on business development.
According to the Boulder Daily Camera, the event has become too expensive and the chamber believes an event company could do a better job.
