It seems that a radio station in Sacramento (KNDM) held a contest to win a Nintendo Wii. The contest was titled “Hold your Wee for a Wii” and had contestants drinking 8oz of water every 15mins for 90mins and then increasing the amounts greatly until there was a winner. Ms. Strange who didn’t win left the contest in tears and was last heard from by her co-workers complaining of a migraine and going home. She was found dead in her home and autopsy results indicate death due to water intoxication. I’m sure that a lawsuit will be following this kind of thing. While the Cincinnati radio stunt involving dropping turkeys from a helicopter seemed awful, this one has to be the worst I’ve heard of yet. Welcome to CrzyLand.
