Cavs fan who said he'd eat his shirt if the Warriors won Western Conference delivers on his promise

http://www.sfgate.com/warriors/article/Cavs-fan-who-said-he-d-eat-his-shirt-if-the-7955071.php

A Reddit user going by the username PARTYxDIRTYDAN is eating more than just his words after he made a promise to eat his shirt if the Warriors won the Western Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Though his judgment may be unsound, he is at least a man of honor; following last night's Game 7 win, he did indeed eat his shirt — or at least a chunk of it — and dutifully posted it on YouTube.

"I don't want to, like, die," he says, as he cuts a sizable piece of his t-shirt while a friend films. After slathering it in sauce and consuming the first piece, he tries to be optimistic. "It wasn't that terrible with barbecue sauce."...

It's not, and as doctors say, it's actually very dangerous to eat cotton. So, PARTYxDIRTYDAN, while you may have learned your lesson in betting against Golden State this time, you should probably not try that again.


I guess Clevelanders prefer T-shirts to T-bone steaks.

I'll cut him some slack for not eating the whole shirt.

Before the season started, believing that KY would win it all and not lose once? Why? Some people just do stupid things.
