Wii Competition Turns Deadly
January 15, 2007
KDND 107.9 The END was holding a contest called “Hold Your Wee for a Wii”. Basically participants had to drink a bunch of water, hold it, and whoever held out longest won a Nintendo Wii. The contest took a negative turn for 28 year old Jennifer Strange who was competing in the contest. She left work early on Friday, later she died of water intoxication. Sadly, she was doing this for her three children… I love my Wii, but it certainly is not worth dying for.
The radio station has posted this notice on their site:
All of you are probably aware of the tragic death of a contestant, Jennifer Strange, following her participation in a contest on the Morning Rave last Friday.
First and foremost, our thoughts and sympathies go out to Jennifer’s family and loved ones.
I also want to assure you that the circumstances regarding this matter are being examined as thoroughly as possible. We are doing everything we can to deal with this difficult situation in a manner that is both respectful and responsible. In the interim, the Morning Rave is off the air indefinitely.
Thank you.
