575-Lb. Spokesman for Heart Attack Grill Dies in Predictable Ending
This is a guest post from Just A Guy Thing.
The Heart Attack Grill, a diner in Chandler, AZ lost its 6'8", 575-pound spokesman when Blair River died at the age of 29. For those not familiar with the concept, the Heart Attack Grill serves some of the most unhealthy and bountiful food in the US under teh guise of being a tongue-in-cheek diet center. The waitresses dress as slutty nurses, and patrons that tip the scales at over 350 lbs eat for free.While the spokesman's cause of death is currently unknown, but speculated to be pneumonia, it's probably not too speculative to think that maybe weighing 575 lbs had something to do with a 29 year-old dying of pneumonia. The Heart Attack Grill offers a touching tribute on their website, but maybe if they hadn't been selling people stuff like this, they wouldn't have had to say goodbye to someone so young. Sure people are ordering this shit, but these guys should take a little responsibility that the restaurant may have lived up to its name. Yay?
I'm gonna go do some yoga. Congrats, Heart Attack Grill. You made me feel guilty enough to do yoga. You win, universe.

What is America coming to? An overweight spokesman to promote a diner that serves unhealthy food? WTF!
Disgusting, but still, everyone involved was free to not do what they were doing. So I don't think that they should have to take responsibility in any way.
It's AMERICA.
In short, you are FREE to destroy yourselves at will!
It makes me sad that someone died. :-\
Sad, but not shocking.
This is MANcouch.
We should be celebrating this man's life and referring future customers to the delectable treats on the menu.
the names for their foods make me want to hurl. flatliner frieds; "deep fried in pure lard"
the only appealing thing on the menu is the candy. I'll buy a packet of m&m's but nothing else.
Man, I really wish I could eat there... Dying young is the way to go nowadays. :)
All jokes aside, I'm not surprised that poor guy died at such a young age... He was clearly unhealthy.. Of course, just because you are the spokesman for a restaurant doesn't mean you should be eating it all the time. I'm sure Mr. Box doesn't eat at his fast-food restaurant all the time seeing as how he makes a ton of money... I'm sure he would prefer filet mignon or something... Everything is bad for you, but if you consume it in moderation, it doesn't have to be. I mean, going to the Heart Attack Grill when you're perfectly healthy and having one meal there is (hopefully) not going to kill you. Now if you're already 350 pounds and then you go there because the food is free so there's an incentive to go all the time... That's a completely different story. Although the theme is the same: choice. We can choose to go through the drive-thru of a fast food restaurant or we could choose to have a salad somewhere else. That's what's great about free will. If something bad happens, chances are, it was your own darn fault.
i'm too confined in Manhattan to understand America's obesity problem until I found size inflation!

@MrsJenBean@xanga - America has a serious problem with what it eats. Far too many eat processed unhealthy fatty, high salt/sugary foods.....and then they supersize that to boot!
The result is that at some point they are going to get some form of disease....like diabetes, stroke, cancer, liver, etc etc. at a very early age in life.
As for their quality of life steadily declining this adds a tremendous burden on our nation's health resources and is extremely costly.
Bad eating is expensive AND destructive at the same time. Despite the many diets and diet fads which are hard to maintain over time, most people gain all the weight back and much more.....you see it all the time.....some famous spokesperson loses weight on weightwatchers lets say, and shows off in the commercials...fast forward 1 year or so and they are a total wreck, diet wise.....with all the old belly fat and MORE. Just refer to Coach Don Shula, or ESPN's Chris Berman and so on.....they get their endorsement money and pack the pounds on soon after.....
Another new trend in the area of fat people is the acceptance of TV shows featuring very fat people....and I mean VERY FAT....take the show Mike and Molly...a show about an extremely FAT couple and their trials and tribulations....they go merrily on their way spewing out all those fat jokes and snickering about it while they balloon ever bigger and bigger. Sadly this is a terrible message to convey to an audience as it trivializes and elevates the state of fatness to a cult status. Being FAT is not something people should aspire to.
How about the TV show "The Biggest Loser".....all that effort to try and lose so much weight that they should never have put on in the first place.....what kind of sense does that make......didnt those people ever scan themselves in a mirror at home when getting dressed? Guess it was easier to buy new clothes than to put the fork down afetr the first plateful of food!
And dont tell me these people arent vain....please...they know how bad they look after gaing 50 - 60 lbs....isnt that enough incentive to stop the food madness?
When you were dating your trim mate in your twenties, why is it ok for them to become twice their size in their forties.....would they have gotten a second date back then at their new weight??? I DONT think so.
Bad eating is bad for people and the planet.....eating meat, dairy, and processed foods are both serious attacks on our entire physical systems and are causing terrible damage to the planet because of the ways that all this bad food is created.....mother earth is at risk here to not just us human behemoths.
Its time America wakes up.....we should take some cues from Europe and the lifestyles they enjoy......I was there twice and the very first thing I noticed was that the vast majority of Europens were about half the size of the FAT American. They actually can wear beautiful clothes....not some disgusting XXXL Tee shirt and some huge pair of stretchy gym pants. We are a nation of FAT people now....and I for one am very disgusted by it....Im sorry but its no fun even looking at FAT people......thats being perfectly honest.....so there. Try going to a mall or a Walmart some time and see if 80% of the people you see arent at least 25 pounds overweight.
If this doesnt stop then this country is going to be in deep trouble.......we need to stress eating properly from the earliest age thru adulthood.
So its time for America and all the sick Political Correctness to stop about fatness!
Fat isnt cute...........Fat isnt jolly!.........fat isnt an admirable quality!...........fat is just that....FAT!.....and it comes with all the true negatives inherent in it......Bad health; Bad looks; Bad quality of life etc etc.
Get real America and all of you fat folks.......stop being brainwashed and start eating healthy...........veggies; fruits; grains; nuts; beans.........if that food your shoving down your gullet had a face....STOP. If it came from something that had a face....STOP.
Sorry but thats the tough love about food.....think about it!
