On June 3, 1998 Howard and the gang started a death pool. Each person(or team) got a list of famous people picked from a hat. Each person put $500 into the pool. When one of those celebrities dies then that Stern show member gets the cash in the pool. Listed below are the celebrities that each person(or team) were dealt. The celebrities marked in Blue are show members or bloated attorneys. Celebrities that have died are marked in Red. Each dead celebrity marks another Death Pool win.
UPDATE: September 6, 1999. Jackie Martling won the first death pool when ''Candid Camera'' founder Alan Funt died at the age of 84. Howard decided to keep the Death Pool running with everyone keeping the same names and tossing in more cash.
UPDATE: September 15, 1999. Gary backed out of the game when he decided that he'd owe too much money to his partner Tom if Walter Matthau died.
UPDATE: July 1, 2000. Howard won the second death pool when actor Walter Matthau died. It was decided that this Death Pool would be canceled and a new one would be announced in the near future.
