It was in a hot tub. My money is on drugs plus hot tub
It was a lap pool, not a hot tub. His home he bought last June lists a lap pool, no hot tub.
Well, that confirms it. There's no way a millionaire could have had a hot tub installed since last June!
I did not know what a lap pool was. This is a lap pool.
Sources online say it was a combo of a lap pool hot tub.
Oh wow neither did I.
For some reason I thought it was a tiny shallow pool, like for toddlers to play in. Why would anyone even have one of those?!
A lap pool, for doing laps, makes so much more sense. I've lived in a house with a pool and it's just a huge pain in the ass. Being able to bust a couple of laps would be great though. I'd love to have this.
Neither did I, thanks for sharing!
Looks hot tubby enough to me https://www.instagram.com/p/Cyuv2zDrL0r/
Damn, that was his last post. Pretty eerie. Seems like there are worse ways to go
Strange, the article from la times said hot tub
Apparently his last Twitter/Instagram whatever post he showed off his new hot tub, so could be either I suppose.
Twitter is saying it is a hot tub, lap pool combo.
Doesn't really matter, does it? Not that most people, yours truly included, didn't contemplate it. But the man's dead, and that's kinda it.
