Celebrity Death Pool 2014

[DemonGeminiX]

Cancer and ALS. I didn't really put that much thought into mine. I pretty much stuck with the same list as last year. I figured that a few political figures/terrorists might bite it. That and some might go due to old age and that are annual favorites throughout the net:

1. Ariel Sharon
2. Lindsay Lohan
3. Kirk Douglas
4. Barack Obama
5. George HW Bush
6. Christopher Lee
7. Jerry Lewis
8. Zsa Zsa Gabor
9. Mohammed Ali
10. Bashar Al-Assad
11. Hugh Hefner
12. Stephen Hawking
13. Ayman Al-Zawahiri
14. Jimmy Carter
15. Abe Vigoda

I originally had Fidel Castro as number 1, but when he was seen in public recently and the news announced Sharon's decline in health, I made the switch. Lohan is my one "young" person that I feel is most likely to off herself with drugs or intentionally. I was thinking about switching her out with someone more unstable, but I figured I'd give her one more year to prove me right.

I tried to go with younger people....... worth more points :sickbastard:

[DemonGeminiX]

Yeah, but the thing about younger people that I've found is that they keep disappointing you. They tend to be really resilient. The bastards just keep hanging around. So while I'll keep at least one, I'll mostly stay away from them.

I bet you're gonna score off of the terminal cancer cases though.

My questionable one was #12, the californian vegetable kid

My questionable one was #12, the californian vegetable kid

i'd go along with what RBP said

I think a reasonable criteria is if you put the name in google search and they have a bio box on the right, good enough for me.

that kid is technically dead and the only reason she's making headlines is her condition , just my thoughts

[deebakes]

i'm fine either way, it doesn't matter to me

[redred]

See what others say

[DemonGeminiX]

I thought we weren't allowing kids. I was operating under the assumption that 18 and older was legal. I can accept Red's litmus test, but I thought it was made quite clear last year that children below the age of 18 were off limits.

[deebakes]

fair enough, my alternate is 80

[RBP]

I definitely agree that kids are off limits and that JaHi McMath died in 2013.

Although I do appreciate the rather morbid attempt at a blatant point grab, Dee.

[DemonGeminiX]

Hahahaha....
