geeteebee Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Somebody just asked me to join one. Sounds a little morbid, but other than that I think I'd be ok with it. Am I missing anything? I know, if you have to ask the question.... Now if it gets to the point where people attach bombs to remote control cars and detonate them under the cars of celebrities on the list, then I won't play, but I doubt it'll go that far. What say you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiegie Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 nah--any contest where I win because someone else dies doesn't sound like much fun to me I wouldn't appreciate it if someone got all happy because they won $100 because my mom died or one of my kids got killed. (Having said this, death pools are nothing new. In fact, if I recall correctly, they existed in 17th century England and helped lead to the creation of Lloyd's of London.)

Menudo Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 As others have said, it's not for me. Celebrating the death of someone by winning a contest just doesn't sit well with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Irish Doggy Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 A pretty lousy pool IMO. There's plenty of other things to bet on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazinib1 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 If you're not into Celebrity Death Pools, which I for one would never even contemplate doing = instant blacklist, then why not try out the ever popular Fantasy Death Row Inmate. Thats right folks, for a measly $25, you to, can experience the sudden rush of adrenaline when it is learned the Texas fellow you chose in the 5th round got sent to his maker. As a matter of fact, your entire roster is made up of Texas death row inmates as the Lone Star execution rate is the highest in the country. Feel the rush!! Choose your Dead Men Walking TODAY!!

Kid Cid Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 (edited) At the dawn of the huddle, we had one of these ... until someone picked WW. And that f'er Bob Hope would not die for me! He was only worth three points but that sumbitch just kept hanging in there! Edited August 9, 2009 by Kid Cid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
