A Kenyan artist, Thomas Kiptanui Kemboi alias Kapkeno has been trending after he was hospitalized for eating 15 eggs in a bid to fulfill a of eating a whole tray of eggs if Manchester United got beaten by Arsenal.
Kapkeno had expressed confidence in his favorite club Manchester United winning against The Gunners at Emirates Stadium last Sunday and even vowed to eat 30 eggs should last season’s Carabao Cup winners lose.
Well, at the end of the normal 90 minutes plus added time of play in London on Sunday, the score read Arsenal 3- Manchester United 1, meaning Kapkeno had lost his bet and he had to eat the eggs.
The Eldoret-based artist later attempted to fulfill his promise as a couple of his friends watched and streamed the whole incident live on Facebook.
However, when he had eaten half the tray, he appeared to develop complications and he collapsed.
His friends who at first thought he was joking then took him to the hospital where he was diagnosed with constipation and was admitted.
Kapkeno however is not the first person to make a crazy bet over a football match.
