A man died here Tuesday evening after drinking 23 shots of vodka in 30 minutes, Hillsborough County sheriff's deputies said. Eric Morris, 26, was with a friend at the Angels Show Bar, a topless bar on U.S. Hwy. 92. He and his friend ordered shots of Burnett's Cherry Vodka and started playing a drinking game, according to sheriff's spokesman J.D. Callaway. Callaway added that Morris continued to drink shots even when his friend had already stopped. When the bartender refused to give him more shots, Morris got up, wobbled a little and fell on the floor. Morris was taken to Brandon Regional Hospital and declared dead at around 7 p.m. The cause of death is still unknown as investigators wait for the result of the autopsy. The medical examiner's office says that it may take four to six weeks before blood test results are released. |
