Tequila!!
The 21-year-old winner of a competition to drink the most tequila died Monday and three other contestants were gravely ill in the hospital, officials said.
Ricardo Garcia drank more than 50 shots of tequila Sunday night at a Santo Domingo disco to win the prize worth $400 Cdn at a Mexican night celebration.
But he was taken ill, hospitalized and died within hours, apparently from heart failure brought on by alcohol poisoning, said public prosecutor Jose Hernandez Peguero.
The way I like my tequila? Like this.
