It’s Now Nintendo’s Wii’s Turn To Kill Some People
Filed under: Video games and gamers, Weird/offbeat/WTF news
Aptly named Jennifer Strange, this 28-year-old mother from Sacramento County died last Friday trying to win a Nintendo Wii for her kids.
She participated in a radio station show called “Hold Your Wee For A Wii,” which as you may glean from the clever title simply involved people drinking lots of water and not peeing. The one who had the largest bladder took home Nintendo’s latest gaming console.
After participating in a radio show and failing dismally, Strange went home on Friday and hours later, she was found dead in her Astral Drive home in Rancho Cordova.
But after 90 minutes of drinking, Ybarra decided he had had enough. “I tapped (out) after five (bottles),” Ybarra said. “My bladder couldn’t handle it anymore.”
Ybarra said after he quit, the remaining contestents were given even larger bottles to drink to stay in the competition. Strange was still in the contest when he opted out.
“I was talking to her and she was a nice lady,” Ybarra said. “She was telling me about her family and her three kids and how she was doing it for kids.”
But I guess Jennifer was just exceedingly unlucky; I personally know some people who eat their own shit and regularly stick their heads into their bosses’ arses, and yet they happily live.
This after Sony PS3’s brief “reign of terror.”
