Posted Jul 8th 2009 4:20PM by TMZ Staff

The famous Oscar Mayer Wienermobile has proudly made appearances at funerals of past members of the Mayer family -- but don't expect to see it at Oscar's.

Oscar Mayer's Funeral Wish -- No Wienermobile

A rep for Oscar Mayer told us Mr. Mayer -- the grandson of the original Oscar Mayer -- requested the Wienermobile not make an appearance because "it would be too much of a spectacle." Mayer's wishes were for a small private funeral.

Oscar died Monday -- he was 95.

12. Why is website the "All Micheal Jackson News blog" reporting the death of a hotdog manufacturer? This is ridiculous, taking up space that could be featuring someone taking a poor camera phone photo of the outside of the Staples Center where Jackson's body used to be...
