"Retirement" and Death
In 2005, Bremen claimed to be retired from gatecrashing ("You've heard of the Taser gun? You've heard of 9/11? They don't ask questions anymore") but wouldn't rule out a final bow at a future U.S. Senior Open. "Could there be an opportunity when I'm 60? Yeah," he said. (He since turned 60 and did not attempt any reported impersonations.)
Bremen died of esophageal cancer, leaving behind his wife Margo and three children.

Our loves into corpses or wives;

Make barren our lives.”
