You would think someone there could perform the Heimlich maneuver.

it says she died later at the hospital. idk how that even works when it comes to choking. There's a time frame where lack of oxygen to the brain causes brain damage or something?

also, someone is definitely getting sued. Hope the frat/sorority insures these events.

This is why sane companies and institutions no longer have eating and drinking competitions.

Can't believe anyone still does this shite. I mean, that one woman died from drinking too much water. LINK

No way that an insurer would go near an event like this put on by a fraternity or sorority.

over usage of cell phones is not exclusive to millennials. How else do you think all of these moms post to facebook from the salon?

maybe. But the premiums would be high and there would be alcohol related exclusions. For this specific event, they might even exclude choking from being covered. Which is basically no insurance.
