Kid Wins Icee Drinking Contest But Is Immediately Overwhelmed By An Awful Brain Freeze (Video)

The reason we really like minor league sports is because of contests like this one.

At a recent Memphis Redbirds game, a contest was held in between innings to see who could chug an Icee (a Slurpee knock-off) the fastest.  A blonde-haired kid, who bears a striking resemblance to our former intern Zach, came out on top, showing off some seriously impressive straw-sucking skill.  Unfortunately for little Zach, though, he quickly learned of the dangers of the dreaded brain freeze!

Hopefully he at least got a cool prize for his victory.  But if it’s like most of these contests, it was probably a XXL t-shirt with a bank logo on it or something.  Well done, kid.
