It was a fund raising event and eating was optional.

I don't even know why this is posted as if it is Krispie Kreme's fault. People have heart attacks in many races without the donuts. A young news anchor where I live was running years ago (in her 20's) and collapsed. Luckily there was a nurse there. She had a hidden heart condition that is normally fatal. She is alive and well now.

I think you are the idiot. You obviously didn't even read the article. Or do you blame him for having a heart attack? It could happen to you. Would you want people calling you an idiot for having a heart attack? I really fear for the future of the world when I hear the terrible and stupid comments on the internet. Even if he had eaten the donuts, that still doesn't make him an idiot!

A man was trying to support a charity and unfortunately had a heart attack. I don't see what about that makes him an idiot. That was a very mean comment to make and to be honest I don't understand where it came from.

as to not offend anyone I edited my post and removed the offending word. Maybe not the sharpest knife in the drawer would be better....

Nope, that comment is no better. I still question if you read the article.

This thread just just a complete mess of rude comments and knee jerk reactions by people who clearly didn't read the article.
The guy didn't actually eat any donuts, and it was a running race not an eating competition.

Eating contest of any kind should be outlawed. We hear constantly to eat healthy - read labels for excess salt and fat content - - and then some events promote gobbling events. Ever watch a hot dog eating contest? I can't 'stomach' it.

Looks like we need a reading comprehesion test before people can post

I've come to expect these type of posts from this poster.
