Holy crap, are they saying anything about what happened?

A lot of people hated and boo’d the Busch Bro's, I loved their cockiness, and ability to do what it took to win at their level.


Very sad!!!!

41 years old I think. Some of his peers saying they just talked Friday seemed fine. Saw another report that in a recent race towards the end he radioed to have a dr ready to give him a shot. A lot of mystery around the sudden illness for sure. RIP

Yeah . Just reading it . Hard to believe . He did radio for medical assistance after a race a couple weeks ago . I think it was the road race .
Shocking .

 

[Gonna Smoke]

That really sucks...

Yes it does. I'm at a loss for what to say...

Pneumonia is not something to ignore or try to walk off even with provider care. I had a nasty bought with it many years ago and it kicked my but to the curb for close to 6 months. .

My understanding is that he'd been to a medical professional days before and had mentioned the persistent cough. It boggles my mind that this was not diagnosed then.

Never take pneumonia lightly. Things can get real serious real quick.
