I find it ironic that it was not from a heart related issue. Sad just the same.

At that weight, I wonder when was the last time he actually saw his penis...you know, w/o a mirror or assistance.

Coool, I just made myself puke.

I went in there to eat, but left. It felt like a strip club that served food, which is not my scene.

People who are overweight often have additional respiratory issues to go along with the obvious cardiovascular dangers. This could easily have been prevented if he had a different lifestyle. It says at one point he was a state champ wrestler and although he could have been in a higher weight class, the successful wrestlers at my school are some of the best athletes I have ever seen. Seems that things kind of went downhill from that

Dude, lines 2 and 3 were purely joking.

I agree with what you are saying. But it read that he died from complications from pneumonia, iirc. I know a couple people, sadly, that died from the same situation, and both of those persons were not overweight.

I was just stating the irony that someone spokes-personning an establishment whose stance is "taste worth dying for" and sloganeering fat people eat free and all that....that their spokesman didn't die from being fat-related causes. Thin people get the flu and die from it too.

I ate a chicken-fried sausage hotdog today. It was topped with Ro-Tel and pickled purple peppers. There were four fried pickles on the side. Whole thing was served on a roll. It was great, but I couldn't eat like that on a regular basis.

I feel for the guys family and friends. Any loss is sad.

Not a heart related issue, but perhaps had he been a bit more healthy his immune system would not have fallen to pneumonia. Yes, thin people get pneumonia as well, those people generally have other reasons why their immune system fails them.
