Infomercial King Billy Mays Gets Appropriate (And Hilarious) Gravesite Tribute

Deceased TV pitchman Billy Mays got a fitting posthumous tribute this past weekend, 15 years after his death.

In the early part of this century, Mays and his trademark blue shirt were ubiquitous on cable TV infomercials for various cleaning products, such as Kaboom, Orange Glo, Zorbeez and, most famously, OxiClean.

Although Mays died in 2009 from heart disease exacerbated by cocaine , he has not been forgotten, as his son, electronica musician Billy Mays III, discovered during a gravesite visit.

It wasn’t exactly flowers, but Mays’ son thought it was both a hilarious and appropriate tribute for his pitchman Papa.

“Lol just got to pittsburgh and someone left oxiclean at my dad’s grave,” he wrote.

Others were also amused by the gravesite tribute.
