Bubba Smith Died From Diet Pill Overdose

So sad!
Bubba Smith, best known for his roles in the Police Academy movies when he wasn’t being awesome in the NFL, recently passed away and we’re finding out now it was due to an overdose of diet pills.
The exact phrasing was “acute phentermine intoxication” and probably made his heart disease and hypertension worse.
He’ll be missed, and hopefully something good can come from this — a warning to all those out there taking diet pills not to overdo it, or really, do it at all!
