I wonder how many of these happens that aren't reported. https://www.tmz.com/2021/10/21/madie-nicpon-tufts-college-lacrosse-dead-hot-dog-eating-contest/ LACROSSE PLAYER MADIE NICPON DEAD AT 20... After Hot Dog Eating Contest A 20-year-old Tufts University lacrosse player has died ... after she tragically choked during a hot dog eating contest over the weekend. Madelyn "Madie" Nicpon -- a junior on the Jumbos' lax squad -- was participating in a competitive eating event off-campus on Saturday when something went horribly wrong. According to The Journal News ... authorities said Nicpon fell unconscious after choking, and was rushed to the hospital after first responders got to the scene. Sadly, Nicpon passed away just a day later on Sunday.
Tragic. My middle boy almost choked to death on hot dogs- he used to think he needed to 'win' and finish his food before everyone else. I had to give him the Heimlich. Scary as ****. I won a sausage eating contest at Oktoberfest in 2019. When asked my secret, I told the crowd 'you just have to open your throat and just let it happen'.
She mustard enough courage to participate, but maybe forget to chew with the excitement of it all. No one relish in this news. To be frank, it's kind of sad. No bun intended.
I know we shouldn't be joking about death, but... "20 year old coed dies after choking down multiple weiners" should have absolutely been the TMZ headline.
