Stuffed beyond Capacity

2011 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

A 77 Ukrainian man died after winning a dumpling eating contest. The prize, a liter of sour cream, which he held for less than an hour before his demise, might have killed him if the dumpling overdose didn't.

Definitely Toss: Lacks Excellence
Eating contests are common enough, and usually go without a hitch. I can't help wondering if there was a reason not related to the contest which caused his demise (ie a pre-existing health condition). I do find it ironic, however, that the prize for such a contest was a lousy liter of sour cream! We'll see what the other mods say! Thanks just the same, Kent!
