17 Death Row Requests You Won't Believe Were Made
1. Lawrence Russell Brewer
Lawrence Russell Brewer pretty much ruined the 'final meal' for every death row inmate in Texas, after his infamous request shortly before execution. Brewer asked for (take a deep breath) a triple bacon cheeseburger, two chicken fried steaks with gravy and onions, a cheese and beef omelette, tomatoes, a 'Meat Lovers' pizza, bell peppers, jalapeƱos, a bowl of okra, one pound of barbecue meat, half a loaf of bread, three fully loaded fajitas, three root beers, a pint of ice cream, and a slab of peanut butter fudge. Brewer's ridiculous request was granted, but he refused to eat a single bite, leading to the state of Texas ending the tradition of offering last meal requests.
