Contestant dies drinking

Ah yes, the old annual "Running of the Infants." Never really caught on like Spain's version, eh?

If they were like the kids in Village of the Damned or Children of the Damned, we'd be doomed! Creepy fucking kids, man.

nah, it never did catch on. But we needed something to uplift the nation's spirits after the whole dwarf throwing debacle.

Honestly this is the main reason Gatorade was engineered. Water Intoxication is simple the imbalance of electrolytes... Marathon runners suffer from it. This is like one wierd case of it where it was over saturation. I have heard of the MDMA cases though too of over saturation.

Don't take this the wrong way. I think this is a horrible tragedy. But...

Why be mad at the radio station? Seriously, how many people here would have ever thought that drinking two liters of water in 20-30 minutes would kill you? Honestly, it would not have occurred to me before this.

At what point does an individual have to have the sense to stop and go "wow, I feel like shit, a nurse is telling me that this is dangerous, and people are vomitting around me - this Wii simply isn't worth it"?

Did she get the Wii anyways?

No she lost. Some other woman won. I heard one of the other contestants on this morning. I guess she was in it for 2 hours then quit... Dumb way to die.
