Quote: For the past few years I've organized a "Death Pool" at work, and have done pretty well. We do the scoring based on the person's age subtracted from 100, so if you pick someone who's 90, you'll get 10 points. Usually folks picks the older celebs for better odds at scoring, but also throw in a couple of younger ones, just in case.
This year I scored on Ed McMahon and was only the second person out of 10 to get on the board, so I'm thinking my chances are looking good. But then 6/25/09 came around and one of my co-workers scored on BOTH Farrah and Jacko...no lie. The chances of both of them dying in the same year had to be slim, but on the same day?!? We now refer to my co-worker as the angel of death.
