Former 1000 lb man

Link

OMAHA, Neb. -- Patrick Deuel has reached a milestone in his battle of the bulge. He's going to a Nebraska football game.

The Nebraska man once weighed 1,072 pounds. He said he's down to 370 pounds and feeling great.

Deuel will attend Saturday's Missouri-Nebraska game in Lincoln, courtesy of athletic director Steve Pederson and head coach Bill Callahan.

His wife and parents will join him.

It was his childhood dream to see a Cornhusker game, and he set it as a goal when he was recovering from his 2004 gastric bypass surgery in a Sioux Falls, S.D., hospital.

Deuel predicts a 31-14 Nebraska victory.

 
It least he can walk now and is not tied down to a bed. There's no way he could had carried all that weight on his two feet. Perhaps he now weighs a little less than Mark Magino(sp?)?

 
Man down to 370 I would hate to sit next to that guy. He would take up at least two seats. His rolls will be touching someone.

 
Nice Halloween costume!
