How to lose a drinking contest

Fla. Man Dies After Taking 23 Shots in 30 Mins.

"Apparently [other bar patrons] were describing the shots as 'cherry bombs,'" said Callaway, referring to a shot of liquor that is typically made by combining cherry-flavored vodka with Red Bull, a popular energy drink.
This begs the question: Are they sure it wasn't the Red Bull that killed him? Alcademics responsibility note: Drinking contests are dumb.

I think a Darwin Award is in order. Sadly, bartenders are going to get another knock from this.

Totally. Though that bartender was an idiot, I hate the fact that personal responsibility has no bearing on cases like this, and the bartender takes the full blame as if he/she is forcing customers to drink 30 shots.
