Costs? I know people who think recreational sailing or cruising is
follhardy. Want them to make decisions for you like Marty?


When they make decisions about my money, yes.


"eating contests" are generally not considered a brave

endeavor, Bubbles.



People have died or required serious medical attention during such
contests.


Yep. Is that a reason why I should pay for it?

People can jump off cliffs, too. You genuinely believe that
society must bear the cost for all stupid risk-taking behavior?


.... Better make them leave a hospital deposit before trying for
that 60th hot dog.


Tell you what, why make it just for contests? Why not open a
chain of free fast-food restaurants catering especially to
the morbidly obese?
