THE 2RD "MULTI" ANNUAL B.N. CELEBRITY DEATH POOL!

OFFICIAL RULES:

Each contestant will pick one celebrity that they think will be the next to die. Only one celebrity per BNer and the same celebrity cannot be picked by multiple people. Once you make your pick you must keep that pick! In other words... ONCE A PICK HAS BEEN MADE, NO CHANGES WILL BE PERMITTED. The contest will officially start on Sunday at 6:30 PM with the kick off of Super Bowl 39 (Approximately 6:30 PM EST). If a celebrity becomes critically ill at any time prior to the start of the contest, that celebrity cannot be chosen.
CELEBRITY CARRY OVER: If you played in the last BN Death Pool and would like to keep your original pick, you will have until 12:00 P.M. EST (that's lunch time for the intellectually impaired) this coming Tuesday - 2/1/2005 to do so. If you have not re-selected your pick by said time, your celebrity will be up for grabs.
CELEBRITY CRITERIA: This should be a MAJOR celebrity of the past or present with the criteria of "MAJOR" to be determined by the answer of this question, "Would this celebrity's death make it on the 6 o'clock national news"?
If the celebrity you picked dies you will not win the pool unless the Associated Press does a story about them . You can check the link below for an A.P. obituary release...

PRIZE AMOUNT: Each losing contestant will be required to mail $1 in cash (paper money please) to the winner. The total prize amount will be based on the number of entries.
EXCEPTIONS: You must be paid up from PBD I in order to participate in PBD II... PAY YOUR DEBT PEOPLE!!! :lol:
CONTEST DURATION: The contest will continue until a chosen celebrity takes a dirt nap.
LIFE STATUS VERIFICATION: CLICK HERE TO CHECK IF YOUR CHOICE IS STILL BREATHING

I sent NYC my pick via PM because I'll be out of town after tomorrow, and won't be able to get on the site for over a week. I'll check with Hula Dancer, see who she wants to kill off...

I always had this theory that Ed Mcmahon was secretly in love with Johnny Carson.. He was kinda like the Smithers to Mr. Burns.... I believe old Ed will die of a broken heart, I just hope he waits till kickoff!

Throw back: Bill Cosby

Aquire through free agency: Ed McMahon

st somewhere-thanks for all the hard work making this all look so official! I guess I was taught that you "dance with the one you brought to the dance" so I'll stick with Gerald Ford.

And I hope when whoever dies first does, it is someone I like a bit less than the one who died this first time around!

I'm gonna stick with Ms. Diller.

And I think Barrett Robbins violates the "critically ill" clause.
