Sweepstakes on the pope
 

Right, it looks like he is finally about to shuffle off this mortal coil, so sweepstakes. pick a 30 minute slot that he will die today. alternativaly, die another day.

my bets are

10:30 - 11 am BST. (British Summer TIme)

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

He's tough enough... He'll make it to the night, and die at April second (no one dies at april fools day, it's not funny) between 3:00 and 3:30 local time.
Edit:
That is 2:00 - 2:30 GMT BTW.

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

Midday- 12:30

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

I just read that his conditioned worsened...
I can't help but think that the guy will just jump up from his bed tonight and yelling "april fools!".

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

April 1st, 18:00-18.30 GMT

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

Update 10:27 ( www.fok.nl (Dutch))
The italian media said the pope slipped into a coma. The vatican officially denied this.

Shit, I might lose this :(

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

Edit: Scratch that, April 1st, 11:30-12:00

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

April second 1-1.30pm

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

28 minutes to go. seems I was too early, but there is still time.

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

When did jesus die again?

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

just like Elvis, Jesus Lives.

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

oh well time's up for me, looks like I lose :(

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

Perhaps he DID die and the vatican doesn't want to admit it.

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

maybe, but I am not going to hope too much. though you have inspired me, I will just claim it is a conspiriacy by the entire catholic church to deny me my prize of being able to gloat on GD.

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

he's a tough old bugger, i think he may surprise people

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

April 4th, 11:00-11:30am (BST, not GMT you numpties).

PS. Wasn't the Pope listed in that Dead Pool-esque thread a while back?

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

april 3, between 18:00 and 18:30 (as courtesy to the media)

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

most likely yeap. seems with the queen mum gone, reagan gone, and the pope within hours of shuffling off the mortal coil, the only notable oldie we will have left will be none other than Mrs Thatcher. we need famous almost dead more old people dammit.

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

Solar Eclipse on April 8th, seems as good a time as any. 13:37 :rolleyes:

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

Having a sweepstake on a guy popping his clogs is one thing, being happy that you're going to be right is another.

I predict some time between 11:00 and 14:00 on April 3rd

Re: Sweepstakes on the pope
 

It'll be tonight, be it this evening, or in the small hours of the morning. Not too specific I realise.
