2024 SDMB Celebrity Death Pool

It’s on his sweater already.

Brian Thompson’s continued living claim has been denied.

I really am quite torn about that. Murder is – let’s be clear - very bad. But I’m guessing the list of people with strong motive to commit violence upon the executives of that company is very, very long indeed.

I will admit to fantasizing various political and capitalist entities being recognized and harassed whenever they appear in public. Trying to eat in a restaurant? “Shame, Justice Thomas! You sold the Constitution down the river!” Go to a show? “Hey, everybody! It’s Heather Bresch, the gal who bumped Epipen prices to $600 each so she could get a $98-million bonus!”

Okay, let’s stay on the Death Pool topic.

There are other threads to discuss the details of this murder.

Thank you raventhief!!!

Nevermind. Repost.

Bill Melton, who had a solid 10-year career at third base for the White Sox and a couple other teams in the ‘60s and ‘70s, has gone sliding home at 21 points.

Maggie Tabberer saves me from a total newbie flame-out … if that’s not too macabre to earn 13 points.

TV and fashion personality Maggie Tabberer dies aged 87

All I knew about her was when she advertised the Women’s Weekly. Which I guess is plenty.

At this point, I suppose I should just be happy with a top 20 finish, since no one else is apparently going to shuffle off the mortal coil and do me a favor.

I’m in The Top 80!!!

I’m on the list!

I am keeping people alive!

I’ve managed to get into a tie with myself. I’m now in 17th place on both the Celebrity Death Pool and the Themed Death Pool lists.

Yeah, but I’m ahead of you (alphabetically).

I’ve got you all right where I want you…

CNN —

Steve Mensch, the president and general manager of studio operations at Tyler Perry Studios, died in a plane crash Friday night, according to officials.

The Florida Highway Patrol said troopers found Mensch dead at the scene of a crash just after 8 p.m. in Citrus County, Florida. The agency does not name Mensch as the man who died, though the Citrus County Sheriff’s Office said it was Mensch, 62, from Fayetteville, Georgia.

Later confirmed by the studio.
