Quarter-life. FINAL-death

2012 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/soccer-dirty-tackle/chinese-man-dies-staying-eleven-straight-days-watching-163531302--sow.html

A young 26 year old extremely athletic and healthy soccor fan from Hunan China goes on an 11 day bender of very little rest, virturally non stop soccer coverage of the 2012 Euro championships and dies. Excessive smoke and alcholic drinking contributed to his physical demise. He only made it to the Quarter finals. He rooted for England and France.

Usually I'd write this off as too common (we get a lot of stories about video gamers, usually from Asia, going on marathon sessions), but I have to say this fellow probably went longer than anyone AND went to work! This fellow must have been a shipwreck by day 4! I'll vote this one in (though my fellow mods may wish to zap it for whatever reason). I think the readers should see this first! Thanks, Primrose!

I think the doctors comment in the linked article sums it up nicely: "If you use beer to replace water that is not good."
