Man Dies in Connecticut Dance Faceoff
 
NEW BRITAIN, Conn. (May 9)- A man died while trying to outdo a rival with an acrobatic move while "battle dancing," police said. (BATTLE DANCING????!)

Robert Stitt, 48, and his rival were competing in a parking lot Monday night when he tried a forward flip and landed on his head. ( He's 48 years old and dancing in a parking lot on a week night??? Is it just me or did Darwin look down and say "Okay, I've had enough of you.")

"It was just two guys dancing. Everybody was laughing," Stitt's friend John Boxley said. ( Everyone was laughing.........)

Boxley said James Brown  was on the radio and Stitt wanted to outdo a rival dancer, who had flipped in the air. (Who can resist James Brown? Everytime I hear him I want to battle dance.)

Police said the victim went into cardiac arrest and was pronounced dead a short time at a local hospital.

Police said several people were in the parking lot drinking and battle dancing - a competition in which each dancer tries one-upmanship with unique moves.
( I guess Battleship Galatica isnt on Monday nights.)
