Ozzy Osbourne‘s fans are saying one last goodbye to the “Prince of Darkness” … flooding the streets of his hometown to say farewell before he’s laid to rest.
Devoted Osbourne supporters are packing Broad Street in Birmingham, UK for the procession … with some people arriving in the wee hours of the morning to lock down prime viewing spots.

Sharon Osbourne appeared visibly emotional as she stepped out of a car alongside her children — Kelly, Aimee and Jack — laying a bouquet of flowers atop a growing pile of tributes. She then hugged several people, as chants of “Ozzy” echoed from the crowd.
The touching moment came at Black Sabbath Bench and Bridge … which has become a makeshift memorial, with fans leaving flowers and tributes to the rock legend.
The Osbournes are following the hearse in cars — heading from their home to the iconic strip … with a local brass band playing tunes along the route.
What’s more … heartfelt notes and letters to the icon have been placed all along the procession route.
